Junette Nakamura and Sheri Kinoshita planned a delicious evening of food and wine.Ryan Kadota of Kadota Liquor worked with the chef at the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel to wow a group of Hilo food and wine lovers.

The first course was tasty!Bruschetta, bacon-wrapped chicken, and a sausage wrapped in a delicious bread.

Next, we enjoyed a duo of salads.  A Caesar salad and a spinach salad paired with a rose.

The pasta course was also a pair of pasta dishes.  Shrimp, chicken, mushrooms, cream and more.  And the chef made the dish in front of us!  The star of the evening was a standing rib roast!  Perfectly done, impressive, and delicious!We ended with a delicious dessert.  Strawberries and cream.

We enjoyed the food and wine with good friends and new friends.  I can’t wait for the next Smash and Bash Wine Dinner!  Living Hilo Style.
