As Roz and Vin try to find their way back, they have complications as her husband moves out and extends his lease. She decides to sign up for a figure class and to increase her artistic side. While her husband figures things out, she also spends time with her best friend, Raffi who is also her brother-in-law! Of course she has feelings for him as well.
As they work through their separation, she finds that the opportunity to have her estranged
husband as a figure model may be a way for them to see one another and to come back together again!

OHANA STYLE: FOOD FROM HAWAI’I FOR YOUR FAMILY
Clarkson Potter
Sheldon Simeon
Everyday Hawai’ian cuisine is explored in this cookbook by 2X Top Chef fan favorite Chef Sheldon Simeon who shares his flavors with us. In his cookbook, Ohana Style: Food From Hawai’i, For Your Family, he shares over 100 recipes that are not fussy and perfect for substituting ingredients with these traditional dishes. From a culinary standpoint influences come from Native Hawai’ian, Filipino, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Portuguese and more!
In terms of subsitutions, he gets creative with plant-based spins (swap out raw fish with pan-seared ripe avocado for a delicious “tataki”, or using mushrooms to create the best “escargot”) and shortcut cooking techniques (like searing shoyu-marinated tuna in a hot wok or pan to mimic smoking.
You’ll be able to blend sweet, savory, and tangy Hawai’ian flavors into every day meals, all the while centering the cuisine’s legacy of communal-style eating.
We’re excited to try Pork Belly Tocino with garlic rice for breakfast and Stir-Fried Olives with ginger as a midday snack, to a pan-fried Lemon-Caper Mahi dinner.
