Double Fruit-Glazed Pork Chops:

6 6-8 oz double-rib pork chops
Salt
Pepper
...
2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
1/2 cup honey
2 teaspoons dry mustard
6 whole cloves
12 whole coriander seeds, crushed

Brown chops in skillet; season with salt and pepper, then place in shallow baking pan. Combine remaining ingredients for sauce, and spoon about 3 tablespoons over each chop. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 1 1/4 hours or till done, basting now and then with rest of sauce. With toothpick, peg a slice each of orange, lemon, and lime on every chop, top with maraschino cherry; baste fruit with sauce and bake 10 minutes longer. To serve, arrange the chops on leaf-lined platter with Honeyed Bananas. Makes 6 Servings. (Recipe from Kona Inn)

Honeyed Bananas:

Peel 6 bananas; dip in lemon juice. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in skillet; stir in 1/4 cup honey. Add bananas, cook over low heat, turning gently, until hot and glazed. Don't overcook-takes only a few minutes.(Recipe from Kona Inn)
