A co-worker brought this cookbook into work so I could look for pupu recipes. Well, about 30 seconds into the cookbook I knew I had to have it in my collection. It has arrived today and I am on my way to the market now for scallops! I am looking forward to eating my way through this while cookbook. So, break open the okolehao and let's get cooking!
