Introduction: E 'imi ana i ka Papa Kuina o Samoa
He ʻāina mokupuni liʻiliʻi ʻo Sāmoa ma ka Pākīpika Hema. ʻOiai ʻike ʻia ka ʻāina no kona nani kūlohelohe, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kāna ʻano meaʻai. Hoʻopili nui ʻia ka meaʻai o Samoa e ka moʻomeheu Polenekia o ka mokupuni a hāʻawi i nā ʻano kīʻaha e hōʻike ana i nā kuʻuna a me nā loina o ka poʻe kamaʻāina. Hiki i ka poʻe kipa ke manaʻo e loaʻa ka nui o nā meaʻai iʻa hou, nā huaʻai wela, a me nā mea kanu aʻa ma nā menus o nā hale ʻai Samoa.
Local vs. International: He aha ka mea i hāʻawi ʻia?
ʻOiai he mea koʻikoʻi ka meaʻai Samoa i kēlā me kēia huakaʻi i ka ʻāina, makemake paha nā malihini i ka hoʻāʻo ʻana i nā meaʻai honua i ko lākou noho ʻana. ʻOiai he ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo ka hapa nui o nā hale ʻaina ma Samoa e lawelawe ana i ka pāʻina kūloko, aia kekahi mau hale ʻoihana e hāʻawi pū ana i nā meaʻai honua. Hāʻawi pinepine kēia mau hale ʻaina i ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi a me nā malihini, a hiki ke loaʻa iā lākou ma ke kūlanakauhale nui o Apia a me nā wahi mākaʻikaʻi nui ʻē aʻe.
Kahi e loaʻa ai ka meaʻai honua ma Samoa
E like me ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻia, hiki ke loaʻa ka meaʻai honua ma nā wahi he nui ma Samoa. Ma Apia, hiki i ka poʻe malihini ke hele i ka hale ʻaina ʻo Paddles no nā kīʻaha ʻAsia, a i ʻole e hoʻāʻo i ka Meata no ka pāʻina Italia. No ka poʻe e ʻimi nei i kahi ʻono o ka Mediterranean, ʻo Giordano's kahi koho kaulana. I kēia manawa, hāʻawi ʻo Sails Restaurant ma Taumeasina Island Resort i kahi hui ʻana o nā kīʻaha honua a me nā kīʻaha kūloko i kahi hoʻonohonoho wai kupaianaha. Ma nā wahi ʻē aʻe o ka ʻāina, hiki i nā hōkele a me nā hōkele ke hāʻawi i nā meaʻai honua ma kā lākou menus.
I ka hopena, ʻoiai he mea pono ke hoʻāʻo ʻia ka meaʻai Samoa i ka wā e kipa aku ai i ka ʻāina, ʻaʻole e hoʻohoka ka poʻe e ʻimi nei i ka pāʻina honua. Me nā koho liʻiliʻi i loaʻa i nā wahi mākaʻikaʻi nui, hiki i nā malihini ke ʻimi i nā ʻano meaʻai i ko lākou wā ma Samoa.
