S Swanky Tiki Socialite Hapa Haole Hideaway, Knoxville, TN Joined: Apr 03, 2002 Posts: 5398	S Swanky Posted posted on 03/23/2007 I was about to pre-order, and then I thought I better wait and see if I can get it from his very hand at Hukilau! The seminar there last year was great. It really explained what went into the recipes in the beginning, and what it took for him to uncover those recipes again for his books. Very well done.

Beachbum will also be giving his legendary seminar at Oasis August 18, 2007 and will be selling and singing books there (if you can wait that long!)
F Formikahini Tiki Socialite Houston, Texotica Joined: Aug 22, 2002 Posts: 1514	F Formikahini Posted posted on 04/09/2007 I know that for tikibars, if you buy his book(s) directly from him, he makes substantially more than if from any other source. Does anybody know if this is/will be the same for Jeff? Can anybody ask him? I'll be happy to wait 'til Hukilau if so. (I cannot WAIT for the next Sippin' Safari Seminar! I loved the last one - wonderful even if I HADN'T had several tasty samples....and then a few more...) F

Other than appearances, I don't think he sells them directly anyway, so probably not? If you look on Jeff Berry's new blog site, his post about the new book has a link that takes you to the SLG publishing site to pre-order the book. And the links on his site to buy his older books take you to Bosko's site. So, I guess that answers your question. Personally, I think I'll wait til the seminar because he will have some to sell and sign there. Otherwise, if you pre-order and it doesn't arrive before Hukilau, you won't be able to get it signed. (I cannot WAIT for the next Sippin' Safari Seminar! I loved the last one - wonderful even if I HADN'T had several tasty samples....and then a few more...) I second that. The last one was terrific. See you there!

S Swanky Tiki Socialite Hapa Haole Hideaway, Knoxville, TN Joined: Apr 03, 2002 Posts: 5398	S Swanky Posted posted on 04/10/2007 Answer is... "pre-ordering is the way to go, as I'm not sure how many books I'll have with me at Hukilau."

K Koolau Member Oahu, Hawaii Joined: Sep 23, 2006 Posts: 323	K Koolau Posted posted on 05/30/2007 OK - I'm done with waiting for Sippin' Safari, but the book is not even listed at Borders or Barnes and Noble. Is it going to have a very limited distribution? I know it's on Amazon, but I'm a bricks and mortar kind of guy - I want me hands on it!

Fortunately Monin still uses real passion fruit in their syrup.
