Primal Cauliflower Pizza Recipe
> This recipe is a little bit different in that it doesn’t fall into my normal categorization or Paleo or Zone, but Primal. There’s a lot of writing on the Primal Diet out there on the interwebs, but it’s very similar to the Paleo Diet, with the inclusion of some dairy back in. And guess [...]
Co Co Sala
Co Co Sala is a hotspot among the sweet-toothed night owls, and I’m not talking about the sparkly cast of the Twilight series. The restaurant focuses on small dishes that really explore all corners of your sense of taste. The restaurant offers a 3 course and 5 course tasting dessert menu, but you should expect [...]
Founding Farmers
Founding Farmers is another restaurant owned by the same group that operate Agraria Farmers and Fishers in Georgetown. The restaurant uses the same reclaimed olde timey milk bottles for their water and same emphasis on fresh, wholesome ingredients, and the same contemporary-yet-rural design throughout the restaurant, which really like.

Polish Villa

Or if you’re someone like me, as a mid-day defense against the heat and humidity that is dropping DC to its knees. Affogato means ‘drowned’ in Italian, and is simply [...]

Well, maybe I went [...]
Pinky’s Pupu Bar & Grill
Pinky’s is just a short drive from Kailua’s beaches, and has a reputation for being the local hangout for the military. The parking lot is usually filled with trucks, trucks, and the occasional Chevy Malibu rental, much like the one we arrived in. Everything about this establishment down to the name screams out at you. [...]
Buzz’s Original Steakhouse
While out and about in the area of Kailua on the east coast of Oahu, we were lucky enough to have a friend who’s very familiar with the local places to eat and grab a drink. Our guide took us over to Buzz’s Original Steakhouse, which doesn’t look like much more than a crab shack [...]
