It did hit the spot and everyone seemed to really enjoy everything esp. the beef swarma, I sliced chuck roast for it and it came out very tender...

The Hawaiin Potato salad is one I always loved at a Hawaiin take out in San Diego, I liked it because it had macaroni as well in it, which was very different from what I grew up with!
Heres the recipe


Hawaiian Potato Salad
4-5 large potatoes
1 1/2 cups shell macaroni-dry
1-2 carrots diced small
2 celery stalks-diced small
2-3 pickles to taste-chopped
1 cup peas (I left them out)
2 stalks green onion-chopped
salt and pepper to taste

Dressing

1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup Zesty Italian dressing
2 T. pickle juice (or less)

Boil potatoes until tender. Cool and cut into cubes. Cook macaroni per package directions. Toss with remaining ingredients. Add dressing.

*Note* I reccomend making extra dressing because it really gets soaked up!!
