Maui Tacos Rules!

I may not be able to sit under a lauhala tree and watch a dazzling Maui sunset to the sound of crashing waves while enjoying the Maui-Mex food, but ...

Being away from home and in NYC makes this book priceless for me. No local potlucks, plate lunches, or okazu deli food here, I gotta make my own "ono" ...
