Hey all! I been meaning to post this a long time ago but with the 4TH of July festivities, I’ve had no time! Anyways this is going to be a wrap up of last weekend up to hump day Wednesday. Enjoy!!
First up on the plate! Flavors of Honolulu and boy were there a lot of plates to go around. This was an event for Abilities Unlimited. This took place This past Saturday (June 28, 2008)
Here is the main stage! I have no idea who was playing since I was overly distracted by the food I wanted to eat :)
The happy people enjoying the show
The place was packed with happy people and happy tummies I’m sure.
John Noland hosting his forth cook off of the day. HPD vs HFD… I think for the past three years HFD has won this tournament, and well what do you expect, these guys gotta cook for themselves all the time! hahaha
Here are some of the booths
BEER!!!
PRIMO!!! (damn… 9 scripts? that was like $5)
Schwin working the sounds… this guy is important if you didn’t know so if you see him working thank him for giving you such a great show hahaha.

Kalua Pig, Chicken Long Rice, Haupia, and Lomi Lomi.

Tiramisu (i think thats how you spell it. I have a bad memory of this cake when they brought it to the studio. lets just say, my shirt and pants got more of it than i got in my mouth.)
Deep fried shrimp. I didnt itch! and it was tasty…
Strawberry and banana crepe for desert hehehe
and maybe a little shave ice.
Now for the main event that I stuck around for, the Celebrity Cook Off between Frank B Shaner/John Aeto and Rob DeMello/Russell Yamanoha. This event was very interesting, coming in Rob DeMello never cooked a day in his life. Frank and John knew they had this one in the bag. The challenge was Chill! WOAH!! DUDE FOOD!!
