Book Reviews of The Food of Paradise: Exploring Hawaii's Culinary Heritage (Kolowalu Books)
Book Review: An outstanding historical perspective on Hawai`i's foods.
Summary: 5 Stars
Read this book before or after you visit Hawai`i, and you'll increase your appreciation of the people, the place and the food. As one born and raised here and of mixed ancestry, I treasure this book. The only significant group the author missed is the Puerto Ricans, and consequently some of the Afro-Carribean influences in our cuisine.
