“Hawaiian Dinner” Cedar Park, 2020

Each year on Christmas Eve, we have a Hawaiian feast. It’s usually at my parents’ house in California, but this year we decided not to travel due to the pandemic, so we just had a smaller 4-person version here in Texas. Instead of the usual lau-lau, I made a char-siu-style chicken, and also our staple kalua pig. Kalua pig is really easy and simple to make following this recipe from Foodland, and it turned out perfect! Mariko also made poké and mac salad for a delicious, traditional (to us) Christmas Eve dinner. 😊🎄🍴

    1. You should! There’s an ongoing debate in my family on which is better: mac or potato salad. My mom usually makes a combo now, but my immediate household prefers macaroni (I’m the sole potato person).
