This year it was the first week in July. Here'a blurb from the newspaper. "The Ala Moana Hotel's Plantation Cafe this week kicked off a Flavors of Portugal promotion with Chef Mark Braz's recipes for specialties from caldo verde soup to flan with port. A selection of Portuguese wines and beers will be served, too. Rotating dishes will be featured at lunch and dinner Tuesday through Sunday, through July 24, with Portuguese specialties added to the regular Friday and Saturday buffets and the Sunday brunch. Most of the dishes are characteristic of mainland Portugal, though the flavors will be familiar to Islanders used to foods rooted in the Azores Islands and Madeira. Among the offerings: linguica grilled with brandy, pork with clams, casserole of salt cod and potatoes, veal cutlets in white wine sauce. Reservations: 955-4811."
