Thai yellow curry is almost a staple dish in Hawaii. Thai yellow curry with chicken takes it one step further.
Hawaii truly is a melting pot of cultures and the food is no different. Specifically, Asian food plays a crucial role in rounding out the restaurant scene here. Japanese, Vietnamese, and Thai food dominate the landscape, and for good reason. The food is good.
Another key staple in Hawaii, is the plate lunch. This combination of meat, rice, and salad in a styrofoam take out container is what basically everyone eats; at least once a week, and more often almost everyday.
The styrofoam container then expanded its reach to beyond the plate lunch, to basically every takeout venue in the state. And while in the last few years, styrofoam has been banned and new materials are being used, the concept is the same. All food, can be takeout.

Wine Pairings
Not sure what to drink with curry? Try a dry, rich white to play on curry’s mild and creamy flavor. Look for wines that are fruity, unoaked, or lightly oaked such as an Australian Chardonnay, or white from certain parts of California. If you are feeling adventurous, try a Gewürztraminer, which has secondary flavors of rose petals and tropical fruit which will play on the complex mixture of spices in curry.

British Indian Spice Blend
Bring the British Raj into your home with our Yellow Curry seasoning blend
Curry is a dish that orginated in India and has since spread throughout the world, with each region adding their own influence. Curry powder, as we know it, became popular in the 1800’s when the British attempted to recreate the Indian dishes they had come to enjoy while abroad during the time of the East India Company and the British Raj.
This complex spice blend is now more commonly known as Yellow Curry, a British staple that is considered and accepted as a national food. Keeping with tradition, our Yellow Curry blend is a combination of coriander, fenugreek, turmeric, cumin, ginger, mustard, and other spice and herb flavors that evoke the essence of traditional Indian cooking.
