Reggie’s Kaukau Time

Reggie's Kaukau TimeWrites Reggie: “‘Kaukau’ is a pidgin slang word meaning ‘food’ or ‘to eat.’ The Hawaiian term for food is `ai. The two theories on the origin of the word ‘kaukau’ are the Hawaiian word for table, pâkaukau, and the Chinese word for food, chow chow. In Hawaii we say ‘We go kaukau!’ I would say, ‘I hungry I like kaukau!’ or ‘Let’s kaukau!'”
