WOW what a great topic... so many of the local stores have someone that makes it for them. i had some yesterday from the store near me and it was so meltingly good i went back for more later. they sell it warm out of the oven in the morning.... mmmm just another reason to live here in this wonderful place... YUM!

GREAT! Thats good to know since i will be a permanant resident on Oahu in September....and costco will be the first place i go.

WOW! thanks so much i am really looking forward to it !

ah yes! I think thats another good good suggestion i love duck so thats a great idea. Do you have any idea how its made? i will try it sometime soon and let you know. thanks ← It should be a boneless duck stuffed 8 kinds of grains/stuffings (rice, certain lentils, dates, etc...) and then it is roasted or braised. In order to enjoy it - you need to like the thick chinese style of stuffing - like sticky rice or the steamed tamale ('chung'). ← OH YES! thats sounds YUMMY! is it and entire duck? i suppose it is. have you had 8 treasure duck before then other places?

Thanks i appreciate that one of the things i like there is the baked short cake its a pork and green onion filled bun thats very addictive. i usually buy them by the dozen and put them in the freezer. i heat them in the oven and they are fabulous for snacks. what about main dishes pork or otherwise have you had anything from them?

When i am in the Vancouver/Richmond area Shanghai Wind is one of my favorite places... aside from the soup dumplings can anyone point me towards some of their best dishes. i want to get to know their menu better. i asked if they make their own noodles and they said they did ...has anyone had anything in particular they really liked. I would really appreciate some guidance on anything on the menu as long as it fabulous. Thanks

I have not had the chance to visit any Oahu farmers markets i would love to know how they compare to the Hilo sunday/wednesday market. this morning when i was down there i saw the biggest avacados i have ever seen in my life ...some nearly 8 inches in diameter. The Hilo market does not have much non produce stuff...only a few people selling rice and breads. one woman had these fabulous little stuffed coconut balls i had to buy 6 of them they were so good... and one man was selling a HUGE jack fruit....would feed a family of 16. LOL! i dont know how many of them are farmers vs just sellers....does anyone know? anyway..... i was just wondering about the Oahu markets in comparison with Hilo market .....can anyone comment? mahalo

Hanalei poi is all over Hilo i have not had the waipio poi but i am looking for it. i was down at the farmers market this morning and the poi man was not there....i have never had his poi has anyone had it? whats the waipio poi like? hanalie is SO good but i am always up for new things.

tomorrow i am going back to Hilo and i was wondering if anyone has had Waipi'o poi and or Hanalei poi. if so which do you like better? if not what brand do you use? mahalo
