Product Description
Set on a pineapple plantation in up-country Maui, the Hali'imaile General Store has lured travelers for over a decade with its down-home, island-style cooking. Critics and diners rave about chef Beverly Gannon's rustic, hearty fare, and the restaurant is a fixture on "Best of Maui" lists. THE HALI'IMAILE GENERAL STORE COOKBOOK enables readers to bring the spirit of Maui and its landmark restaurant into their own kitchen with over 100 recipes, accompanied by Beverly's warm, chatty narrative. For all those locals and out-of-towners who've begged Beverly for recipes over the years, she has this to say: "Well, folks, here's the book! And I hope every single copy gets food-stained, dog-eared, and, most of all, enjoyed."

 Ode to Pacific Rim Cuisine April 1, 2010
Cookbook Gal
Gannon was one of the founding members of Pacific Rim Cuisine in Hawaii, which takes advantage of local ingredients in creating a fusion of East and West. Her cookbook typifies that type of cuisine. My favorite recipes are the desserts, especially the lilikoi tart. Wonderful book, beautiful photos, but don't buy it solely for the crab boboli dip recipe, because it is NOT in there!
 Fantastic Hawaiian Regoinal Cookbook! March 14, 2010
James G. Johnson (Laguna Beach, CA United States)
I have over 350 cookbooks, including more than 10 that are dedicated to Hawaiian Regional cuisine. Although many of the recipes have a Tex-Mex flavor, due to Bev's Texas roots, all that I have tried (many) are flat-out wonderful. The recipes are easy to follow and require mostly readily available ingredients. This is a must-have cookbook. The kahlua pork enchiladas are awesome! Add the cilantro cream sauce from an earlier recipe. This is how it is served at the restaurant.
Upscale, yet authentic Island Eats! September 19, 2009
Chef Lulu (Portland, Oregon)
This is a really great cookbook reflecting beautiful, upscale preparations and presentations for every day, local style food items. I recommend it for those who are home chefs in their own right, and already have a passion for cooking and enjoy the process of making great food. I borrowed this book from the library so many times, then finally bought it. Great sauces; great flavors and Pacific Rim ingredient combinations. While now a few years old, it is a classic for anyone who can appreciate Hawaii's Island Star Chef's and the perfect flavors and methods they collaborated on as a culinary community to create this island food movement, now well integrated into the everyday food scene in the islands. Chef Bev Gannon, author of this book, is one of my favorite chefs; her restaurant quality recipes are made simple enough for home use, yet yield great return. I also love the culinary talents of Island Chefs' Russel Siu of "3660, On The Rise", Alan Wong.. of many Alan Wong cookbooks, and Jean Marie Josselin who put out a decade+ classic titled, "A taste of Hawaii". All are wonderful editions, and additions to a good cook's library.
Beautiful book with wonderful recipes July 4, 2009
Kay (California, USA)
The Hali'maile General Store Cookbook is one of my very favorite cookbooks. Bev Gannon and her restaurants are very well known on the island of Maui, Hawaii. She takes a little bit of southwestern and a little bit of Pacific Rim ingredients to create the most delicious dishes.
The recipes are fairly easy to prepare, most ingredients can be found on the mainland, she explains every step clearly, and the photographs of the food are beautiful. You can see how she prepares some of the dishes on her website.
Great Recipes April 1, 2009

I loved the recipes in this book, the layout etc. but thought it was strange that while there are some lovely photos of the finished recipes, there were also a lot of photos of just flowers. That's nice, I guess, they looked like native vegetation but if you were going to put a photo in that spot, why not a photo of the food? Other than that, great purchase and fast shipping!
