Aloha, I’m currently in Hawai’i…
HOWEVER, a couple of week ago, I had an immense craving for a garlic shrimp plate. More specifically, my favorite garlic shrimp plate from Giovanni’s!
So I re-created it at home.
If you’ve never been, Giovanni's is a food truck on the North Shore of O’ahu. I love this plate of buttery, garlic-overloaded shrimp on rice, SO MUCH SO, that when I was still living on island and did a “Instagram take-over” partnership with Hawaiian Airlines, one of my posts was talking about it, LOL.
Newbies sometimes complain when they realize that the shrimp is served NOT PEELED. However, as someone who has been obsessed with garlic shrimp plate lunches in Hawai’i, since I was a teenager—I can assure you, it’s for good reason!
