HIFF pt. 3

Another day in Hawaii that started and ended with food... There may be some crossover with what Eric posts, so forgive me.

My cousin Jessica said that Liliha bakery's cocoa puffs are better than Beard Papa. Whoa. We went and they are pretty amazing. Chocolate cream in a puff with a butterscotch sort of topping. Whoa.



Then it was on to vegetarian dimsum at Legend with family and GR board folks. Sort of an unofficial GR tradition now... I feel weird to foist the veggie meal on everyone else, but it is awesome--something we need in L.A.


After the Aloha Stadium swap meet (Eric took a lot of pics and has a lot to say about it), we stopped by Wailoa Shave Ice. It's still the most powdery and best I've ever had, although we're trying another type today.


The housing tract is shaped somewhat like Korea. Tour buses from you-know-where stop there to take pics. Not far from there is a curved road that Magnum P.I. used to speed around.


Early dinner at Auntie Lucille and Uncle Art's patio. We've been eating the best shave ice, cocoa puffs, and everything, but this meal was simply great.


After seeing the excellent film from Japan, Love & Honor, we bumped into Jason, who designed this year's festival program with his girlfriend Theresa. He's a cool guy and a hardcore GR reader.


LMF/24 Herbs vs. Josie Ho at a house party!


Mr. HIFF Anderson Le bros down with 24 Herbs/Alive Conroy Chan in the other room. There's a big Alive/Finishing the Game party at the W tonight, so maybe we'll see you there. No invite needed!

Today we travel the island... it'll be hard not to think of Lance as we do that. Actually, it'll be really easy, which is good.
