Who is Champuru?
Aloha, I'm Donna, known everywhere on the Internet as "Champuru." I'm a Christian, blissfully wedded to my perfect match (the yang to my yin) of 16 years and a stay-at-home mom to my miracle baby, born in October 2008. Living life in Hawaii, less than 5 miles from my hometown, seeking balance in my pursuit of family, faith, recreation, and rest. Read more on the About page.

Ho`okipa Terrace, 4th floor, Ala Moana Center
The “coming soon” sign has come down after approximately two years in the making and Tsukiji Fish Market and Restaurant is finally open. It is the newest addition to Ala Moana Shopping Center’s Ho`okipa Terrace. As its name indicates, the 14,000 square foot site is a combination Japanese all-you-can-eat buffet and fresh fish market, selling local and imported fish, shellfish, poke and assorted seafood. The buffet offers not only fresh sushi and poke, but a salad and dessert bar, steaming hot soba or udon made to order, a variety of shrimp and vegetable tempura, and a some nice hot selections. The food was fresh and tasty and during the busy peak lunch hours, the staff were kept busy bringing fresh batches to replenish the buffet line. Read More >>
