This encore presentation of select recipes that help define Hawai'i's unique palate continues to answer the question: What do Hawai'i folk like to eat? There weren't enough pages in the first book, "What Hawai'i Likes To Eat", to include all our favorite recipes, so consider this the second course. Presented is a new collection of over 145 recipes--comfort food, family favorites, snacks, appetizers, ethnic fare, and gone-but-not-forgotten restaurant specialties. And we invited a special guest to dinner: Martin Wyss, from the memorable Swiss Inn, who proved that with a few local touches, Hawai'i folk would enjoy European food. Flip through the pages of the past, the present, and the contemporary and once again, you'll get a taste of Hawai'i's culinary milieu. All the recipes are easy to make--some familiar, some new, and all local. -- back cover.

When the first white men showed up in Hawaii in 1778 it was the middle of a long fall and winter festival during which various sexual techniques were demonstrated by nude hula dancers, couples engaged in a bowling for partners game, and people played various other competitive sports. The foreign explorers assumed that the Hawaiians never worked and that sex was a universal sport-so to speak. American missionaries soon put a stop to this enlightened custom, and tried their best to completely and permanently ban hula dancing and surfing (in the nude, of course). But as time passed and the first generation of missionaries went to their reward, surfing, hula dancing and the pursuit of sexual pleasures regained some of the ground they had lost. Today's Hawaii is not as laid back as it was in its pre-missionary days, but the sun, the sand, the surf and the islands still work their seductive magic on residents and visitors alike. For vacationers, going to Hawaii is like a honeymoon whe-ther they are newlyweds or not.
