It incorporates the diverse history of settlement and immigration to the islands: South Pacific, Europe, Asia and America. This combination of cultures blended to form what we call “local food.” We encourage you to try something new and offer a small directory of some of our local dishes: Chicken Long Rice: Chicken cooked in broth with ginger, green onions and long rice Haupia Cake: Coconut cake Lau lau: Steamed fish and pork wrapped in taro leaves and a ti leaf Loco Moco: Two scoops of rice covered with hamburger patties, fried eggs and brown gravy Lomilomi Salmon: Salted salmon ceviche Kalua pig: Pulled smoked pork with steamed cabbage Malasada: Portuguese doughnut – plain or filled Manapua: Savory pork in a steamed or baked bread bun (char siu bao) Plate lunch: Main dish with rice and macaroni salad or potato salad (or a combo) Poi: Pounded (mashed) taro root Poke: Seasoned raw fish (various kinds) Saimin: Noodle soup dish with various meats or dumplings in a fish-based broth Shoyu: Soy sauce Spam Musubi: Rice ball covered with a slice of Spam (other variations abound) Gay Yamagiwa & Ann Bernson Restaurant Guide Committee Co-Chairs 12 A.
