St. Patrick's Day is coming up and if you're looking for a unique twist on traditional Irish fare, look no further than Molokai Venison Shepherd's Pie. This dish, created by Ronnie Nasuti of Tiki's Grill & Bar, is a savory blend of fresh ingredients and game meat, making it the perfect main course for any St. Patrick's Day celebration.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
This Molokai Venison Shepherd's Pie is a great alternative to traditional lamb-based shepherd's pie, and the use of venison adds a unique flavor that is sure to impress. The venison used in this recipe is from Molokai, where hunting is allowed due to the large population of deer on the island. The venison has a mild flavor, but if you prefer a stronger game taste, simply add more herbs or seasonings to the dish.
The creamy, gravy-like sauce is made from the combination of flour and chicken or beef stock, and the fresh herbs, garlic, and kale add a touch of green to the dish, making it the perfect meal to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Serve with a cold beer or a glass of red wine and enjoy a delicious and unique twist on traditional Irish fare.Amateur radio operators have a unique opportunity to connect with people from all over the world. The South America 10m contest is just one example of the exciting events that bring amateur radio enthusiasts together.
Last year, I was lucky enough to participate in the 2022 contest and was honored to receive the Hawaiian Islands #1 rank and #1 in OC and a World Rank of #202.
OC in Ham Radio refers to the "Oceania" continent, which includes countries in the Pacific region such as Australia, New Zealand, and various island nations. In the context of Ham Radio contests, OC is used as a shorthand to designate the geographical location of amateur radio operators. This designation is used to keep track of the number of contacts made with different regions around the world, and to foster friendly competition among Ham Radio operators.
The South America 10m contest is a great way for amateur radio operators to improve their operational abilities and to connect with others who share their passion for the hobby. The contest organizers, http://sa10m.com.ar/wp/en-home/, put a lot of effort into creating a fun and enjoyable event for participants. I was thrilled to be a part of this contest and I look forward to participating in future events.
Operating from Molokai during a DX Holiday was an amazing experience. I used an IC-7300 and mainly a Rob KH6RX vertical push-up mast to beam my antenna towards South America. The 28MHz propagation conditions were excellent and the enthusiasm of the participants made it a truly enjoyable contest.
I want to extend my gratitude to the South America 10m contest organizers for creating such a fun and exciting event. I also want to thank the amateur radio community for their support and encouragement. It is through events like this that we can continue to share our passion for this amazing hobby and inspire others to get involved.
Receiving the Hawaiian Islands #1 rank and a World Rank of #202 is a humbling experience and I am honored to have received such recognition. I hope that my participation in this contest will inspire others to get involved in the amateur radio community and to continue to share the passion for this amazing hobby.
In conclusion, the South America 10m contest is a great way for amateur radio enthusiasts to connect with others who share their passion for the hobby. I am grateful for the opportunity to participate and I look forward to future contests. Let’s continue to share our passion for amateur radio and inspire others to get involved.
Contest are just one of many ways that the Ham Radio community comes together to celebrate this amazing hobby and to connect with others from around the world.

Business Matters: The Story of Tiki's Grill and Bar
Tiki's Grill & Bar has been a staple in the Honolulu restaurant scene for the past 20 years, offering a unique combination of good food, live music, and breathtaking views. Bill Tobin, one of the three co-founders of Tiki's, recently sat down with KHON2's Howard Dashefsky to share the story behind the restaurant's success.
Tiki's was founded by three friends who attended the University of Hawaii together. They wanted to create a place where they could enjoy good food, drinks, and company. Little did they know that they would eventually turn their dream into a successful business that has been serving the local community for two decades.
Like most restaurants, Tiki's has faced its fair share of challenges. However, the owners were quick to learn from their mistakes and make changes that helped the business thrive. From the get-go, Tiki's was busy, and it continued to grow as the years went by. The restaurant has survived changes in tourism, the COVID-19 pandemic, and fluctuations in the labor market.
What sets Tiki's apart is its focus on providing a fun and relaxed atmosphere for its customers. The restaurant offers a front-row seat to a nearly perfect view of the sunset, providing a unique dining experience. Live music adds to the ambiance, making Tiki's the perfect spot to enjoy a night out with friends or a romantic dinner with a loved one.
In conclusion, Tiki's Grill and Bar is a prime example of a business that has stood the test of time, overcoming challenges and adapting to change. Its longevity is a testament to the hard work and dedication of its owners, as well as its commitment to providing its customers with a memorable experience. If you're looking for a great meal, beautiful views, and a fun atmosphere, Tiki's is the place to be.
In 2021, Tiki's Grill and Bar added a pop-up Christmas bar in the lava tube, offering a unique and festive experience for customers during the holiday season. The pop-up bar was a hit and added an extra layer of fun and excitement to the already popular restaurant.
Visitors to the Christmas bar were able to enjoy holiday-themed drinks, live music, and a festive atmosphere, all while surrounded by the beautiful natural surroundings of the lava tube. The pop-up bar was a perfect addition to Tiki's already impressive offerings and showed the restaurant's commitment to providing new and exciting experiences for its customers.
