We've got Hawaiian food all over town—and that's because Las Vegas is also known as the Ninth Island. Seriously, it's home to the largest Hawaiian population outside of Hawaii. Turns out, there are a lot of reasons for that, involving a clever casino operator (and perhaps a bowl of oxtail soup), plus some pretty serious land issues back in the 808. But Hawaiians here stay connected to home through music, dance, festivals and (you guessed it) food. This episode was produced by Sonja Swanson.
