    Lebanese chicken dish (Shish Tawook) - kabob-style chicken breast meat, seasoned & grilled, placed over rice, with a garlic-lemon sauce on top.

      Omakase menu at Mitch's. I really liked everything except the lobster, uni, and abalone, all of which were fresh but I'm just not a big fan.

          Someone sent me a canner....that's like a pressure cooker with a pressure gauge on it. So instead of buying already-canned food at the supermarket, I can my own stuff.

          So I get to make up my own recipes. Today I tried the shoyu chicken that I did a few weeks ago....not bad. I had put three chicken thighs into a jar, and added a big spoonful of brown sugar, some shoyu, and some garlic and ginger. I had toyed with onions, but left that for next time. Into the pressure canner for an hour and a quarter, and....voila!...seven ready-to-eat meals, just waiting for rice.

          Well...six, cause we ate one.

              dinner was ... mostly beer cause we went to the willows for the monthly hops and grinds event. this month's theme was "around the world in 80 beers." for twenty five dollars, you get six tastings of about six ounces each and all the pupu you can eat. they had nathan's hot dogs with all the fixings including a red pepper roasted chili, irish lamb stew, ahi poke, tako poke, korean crab poke, crudites, and sausage and cabbage, all prepared with willows' exec chef jay matsukawa's oversight (this is the guy who made a pretty tasty "local" version of haggis, which we enjoyed at march's hops and grinds, which had a celtic theme). tonight, we sampled beers from denmark, belgium, italy, the czech republic, scotland, and of course, the US. i think i'll post more about the beer in the beer thread, tho.

                Checked the freezer this morning and found a leftover ham bone from Easter, a pound of hamburger and a large Portagee sausage. Checked the fridge and found carrots and celery. Onions and potatoes on the counter. Diced tomatoes and tomato sauce in the pantry. Cut everything up and made, as our Mel would say, Daddy's World Famous Portuguese Beanless Soup. Woootaaah!

                  Had dinner at Ruby Tuesday. Fries, finger foods and those mini-burgers, washed down with Diet Coke and a shot of Scotch.

                    dinner was from mac 24-7 at the prince kuhio hotel. eric and i shared the tomato and maui onion salad with blue cheese, and he ordered the mac and cheese and i had the tuna melt on rye. drinks were a strawberry guava lemonade and a ginger ale using real ginger syrup.

                    i'll say here only that we were very underwhelmed for the $50 tab. anyone interested in a more detailed opinon, pm me.

                      Last night: AF & I had dinner w/nachodaddy & his lovely wife - wine & fish at Anthony's in Bremerton, then to a concert by Keola & Moanalani Beamer, and John Keawe. What cool folks to hang with (performers AND dinner companions included.)

                            I was at Maui Mall a few weeks ago and noticed Genki. It's in the space that used to be Fun Factory and then was the Singer Sewing place. Looks kinda smallish, compared to Sushi Go. Neva go inside, though. I just go buy fresh, made to order nigiri sushi at Kozo Sushi. The miniplate less than $5.

                              Mel and I had somekind of frozen, mini, tortellinis with marinara, tossed salad and some tofu. Wife decided to start going low fat and carbs, so I sauteed a couple of chicken breasts and made a little bit of lemone sauce with capers. She's eating that with a tossed salad and the rest of the tofu.

                                I'm disgusted and repulsed, and I can't look away.
