I rather have the pork laulau than the chicken lau.lau I just have to throw out the piece of fat in the pork one.

For those of us that moved away and can't run to 7-11 for our musubi or Uncle Clays for shave ice or Zippys for... well you get it... we can try making the flavors from home ourselves. Try the book Aloha Kitchen by Alana Kysra, or any of the classics by Jean Hee.

Sorry these images are kinda big, but I'm too lazy to resize them...

We threw a birthday Luau last night for a guest from D.C.. Here's my plate!....


Hawaiian Luau Plate

I think everyone here already knows what each item is. Gotta' say, that squid Luau (Auntie?) came out AWESOME! I made the Kalua Pig and Big Island style Smoked Meat on Saturday in my Weber grill with Kiawe wood. Also winnahz. The laulau (actually just a part of it, shown next to the Chicken Long Rice) was purchased as take-out from Ono Hawaiian Food on Kapahulu. These guys really know how to make good laulau! Between them and Young's, hard fo' pick da' winnah.

Here's a solo shot I took of the Big Island Smoked Meat I made...


I learned how to make this from my cousins in Kona. For pupu, it's best served just like that.. with POI! Yeah I know, da' poi looks lumpy, because it is. About a week old and even mo' ono!

Shameless plug.

Re: what's your favorite Hawaiian food?

Uhm, I have alot to learn!

Re: what's your favorite Hawaiian food?

1. kalua pig
2. lau lau (the chicken kine is good too)
3. pipi kaula at People's (though I've never tried it at Ono's or elsewhere)
4. pulehu steak, served pupu-style*

(*Okay I know that's not specifically Hawaiian and probably isn't AUTHENTIC Hawaiian food, but list it because I equate the pulehu method, using Hawaiian salt as a seasoning, with Hawaiian food, so there.)

5. lomi tomato ... I mean, salmon
6. haupia and kulolo -- no can decide which I like better

Re: what's your favorite Hawaiian food?

This squid vs. octopus thing is very interesting. A friend of mine used to love to go “squidding,” as he called it, with a spear. But all he talked about when he went “squidding” was catching octopus.

As for squid luau, I never really thought about what was in it when I ate it, maybe because it’s not one of my favorite Hawaiian foods. I usually just ate it, got it out of the way, and then focused on my real favorites: kalua pig and laulau. Now that I think about it, it must have been octopus in the squid luau that I always ate.
