Big Jake's

Ask Vivian and Evan and Travis what they ate on the Big Island and they've probably forgotten all about the grilled butterfish but they'll tell you about the bowls of pulled pork and rice at Big Jake's Island bbq. We ate so much over there we were embarrassed. Even the geckos got to know us - one jumped on Jo's arm. And the roosters and the mother hens and the gaggle of little chicks. This ain't yelp but if you like bbq and you are in that part of the world we recommend it.


One culinary disappointment this time around was Kalama's. Not the snow cones themselves but the owners when they thoughtlessly closed the place down and went away on a vacation. Last year one of their snow cones was Evan's birthday cake and we were hoping to repeat that for Jo this time. When Vivian found out she said she was ready to call up the owners and tell them that they had disappointed her mother and that they should come back.
