HULI HULI CHICKEN COMES TO DON'S!
Executive Chef Delia Snyder is adding a real treat to the menu this week: Huli Huli Chicken!
This is the Hawaiian version of "Oil Drum Chicken" -- some of you may know it as "Parking Lot Chicken" and anyone who’s traveled anywhere in the world has come across this scene: a roadside stand with a smoky fire in an old oil drum, with well-marinated chicken sizzling on top!
The recipe for this delicious dish has been a hit since was developed in the '50s in Honolulu!
Huli means “turn” in Hawaiian and since Chef Delia's marinade has a good bit of sugar, "Huli Huli" is a reminder to keep turning the chicken so it doesn’t burn as it is cooked over a blazing grill!

The Kalama Brothers!
Ryan & Kai Kalama come from a family full of talented musicians. Their father Ron Kalama and their uncle Baldwind Nainoa Kalama Jr. were the original Kalama Brothers from Oahu. Ryan and Kai learned to sing from their mother's choir teaching, and they learned to perform on the stage from watching their father and uncle and as well as joining in with them through the years. Whether you want to hear the sweet sounds of their harmonies, enjoy their comedic stories, sit back and be amazed by their musical talents on guitars (bass, acoustic, and electric), ukulele and keyboards, or if you want to clap along or stand up and dance, you're sure to enjoy the nature of these two brothers. They always make you feel welcome when you come and special when you leave!
