Squid luau (he'e luau) is a traditional Hawaiian dish made from luau leaves (taro plant leaves) cooked down with coconut milk and squid with a hint of sweetness. We use both the lau (leaf) and ha (stem) of the kalo (taro) plant. Of everything we make, squid luau takes the most time and steps to prepare - if even one step is skipped, it changes the whole flavor. Our recipe was passed down from Tutu Amy Lou in Kahalu'u, O'ahu.

Laulau is pork wrapped in luau leaf (taro leaf) and slow-steamed for over 13 hours. The word "lau" means leaf in Hawaiian. Our laulau is made with luau leaves from the same kalo patches our family grew up with on O'ahu. Available at $5 each a la carte, or included in Da Hammah Plate ($23) at the food truck.

Kalua pig (pua'a kalua) is smoked pulled pork slow-cooked for over 13 hours. It's one of the most beloved Hawaiian dishes and a luau staple. Available on our plates ($17-$23), nachos ($17), a la carte by the pound ($12), and in all catering packages.

We use 4th generation family recipes passed down from Tutu Amy Lou in Kahalu'u, O'ahu. We still cook with the original pots and pans shipped from O'ahu - they hold years of seasoning and stories that can't be replaced. We're the Home of the Laulau Nachos and Squid Luau Nachos, dishes you won't find anywhere else. We were voted Top 3 Best Hawaiian Food in East Hawai'i by the Hawaii Tribune-Herald while only being open 3 days a week.

We're a food truck on the Big Island with regular pop-up locations: Wednesdays at HPP/Orchidland (10am-2pm), Thursdays at HPM Hilo (10:15am-2pm), Friday evenings at the Hilo Night Market (4:45pm-8:30pm), and monthly Sundays at The Barn in Kea'au.
