Hawaii 2010

While I was in HI last week for my 40th we had some amazing food! The Shrimp Shack has awesome spicy garlic shrimp!

The Big City Diner has a killer kimchee fried rice that is a must. Sam Choy's restaurant is also a must, we had the most amazing, biggest, yummiest, juiciest, oysters I have ever had there.

While at the Big City Diner my hubby got a yummy dessert, here's the recipe:
