On the North Shore of Oahu there are white trucks that serve a fantastic shrimp recipe that you must make sure you have when you go to the island of Oahu, in Hawaii. The taste is delicious and it is like eating a pound of melted butter and shrimp together even though one doesn't actually use that much butter. The recipe that follows is close to the one that the islanders use and I am certain that you will enjoy it!
