First time dining at @mahinaandsuns and we will definitely be back!!
I had one of the best cocktails ever (with rum and cardamom 😍) and the Family Feast with a huge whole fish and delicious sides.
Speaking of sides, my favorite was the sweet potato salad, with taro and breadfruit 💗
We just put this place on our favorite restaurants list in Oahu!

Easter may be over, but this Romanian Easter Bread - “Cozonac” is here to stay! With walnuts, cocoa and (sometimes) raisins, it’s the most delicious and comforting sweet treat! ❤️
Save the recipe (one of the easiest ones for Cozonac), try it, and you will understand why we Romanians don’t wait only for holidays to enjoy it! 😎
Find the recipe on the website and at the link in bio!

Avocado toast done right— flavorful, with a perfectly poached egg and crusty bread!
Originally a humble staple in Mexican cuisine, avocado has become a global favorite. Mashed on toast, blended into smoothies, or sliced into salads—it’s traveled far from its roots. Yet behind the trend is a deep cultural story: in Mexico and Central America, avocados have been cultivated and cherished for thousands of years, often enjoyed simply, with tortillas or a sprinkle of salt. 🥑🧂
Curious how other everyday foods traveled the world? Follow along for more bites of culture. ❤️
