Don't feel like going out to catch the game?
No problem! Pick up some pupus and enjoy the game in the privacy of your living room. Here are a few of our local Kaua'i favorites:
Poke (pronounced poh-keh) - Cubed raw fish seasoned with sea salt, often times marinated in soy sauce and sesame oil, and tossed with limu, seaweed. You will find many variations of Poke found in the seafood department of most grocery stores in Hawaii. Try some poke from Koloa Fish Market, 3390 Poipu Rd, Koloa, HI 96756
Wings - You have got to try Dad's Fried Chicken Wings from Kiawe Roots! They are ginger marinated chicken wings, togarashi, chili pepper water and they are mouth wateringly delicious! Find Kiawe Roots at The Shops at Kukui'ula, 2829 Ala Kalanikaumaka rd, Koloa, Hawaii 96756.
Calamari - Hit up Keoki's Paradise for an order or two (or three) of Fried Calamari Strips. They are unlike the usual thin cut crispy calamari strips you may be used to. These are thick cut, dipped in batter, deep fried, and served with a sweet guava cocktail sauce.
