thing is covered in a spicy chipotle aioli that adds another layer of depth to the dish.

It’s the housemade coco-loco coconut sauce that stands out in the Island Style Black Bean taco, which is combined with a yam and corn medley on fresh lettuce with kale and cabbage slaw for a sassy mix.

Tacos are served on either flour or corn tortillas and can be ordered as singles or as a combo of two different tacos. Singles range from $4.99 each to $7.99 each for the fish tacos. A pair of tacos will cost between $9.50 and $14.99. Wraps and burgers range from $9.99 to $16.99.

Lighter fare includes 16-ounce smoothies with fresh fruit and rice, almond and soy milks, and other natural options. The Papaya Princess, for instance, combines fresh-squeezed orange juice with apple juice, carrot, papaya, bee pollen and coconut milk.

It’s an easy spot for a quick stop and if it isn’t too crowded, two tables outside in the shade provide an excellent place to enjoy the fare from The Kitchen at Papaya’s.

which combine the catch of the day with kale and cabbage slaw and a choice of creamy buttermilk, cilantro or spicy chipotle aioli sauce.

The Papaya’s Famous Taro Burger and The Classic Portabella Burger are both served on whole-wheat buns from Passion Bakery and condiments include things like pineapple saw, and house-made chipotle sauce, marigold mayonnaise and dandelion mustard.

If the goal is to find something different, the Not Your Daddy’s Ruben Wrap and its Ruben-Style Tempeh Taco both put a vegan spin on the traditional ruben sandwich.

The wrap is made from ruben-style braised tempeh with melted Chao cheese, wrapped with red cabbage, caraway kraut and topped with Thousand Island dressing. It’s a lot of food and could be shared between two people if you’re not too hungry.

The Hawaiian Taro Hash taco was a smoky delight with local taro, brown rice and veggies crumbled over fresh lettuce and pineapple slaw. The whole

THE VINYL YEARS PLAY ON CYNTHIA & ED JUSTUS SPECIAL TO TGIFR!DAY

O

all the things we sell in our bookstore, none has surprised us more than the growing interest in vinyl records.

We remember when records were making a mild comeback in the 90s, but the sheer demand for records in this decade from teens through baby boomers is a strong and steady trend!

We’ve heard many reasons: it’s the analog sound; it has character; it’s to experience how people listened to certain albums when they first came

out; it’s the hissing and popping, the sound of the needle; etc.

However, there is another undeniable reason: the record album covers.

The covers have served as large canvases for some truly unforgettable art. In the digital music age where “album art” frequently is a tiny image created on a computer, there is something visceral about exploring the jacket cover’s hand-crafted artwork as one listens to the album that is contained within.

In this beautiful Taschen publication, author Michael Ochs shares this perspective in his newly-released book “1000 Record Covers.” Simple title and great contents, it spans the rising tide of records from the 1960s & 1970s, through the declining marginalization in the 1980s, and into near obscurity in the 1990s.

“1000 Record Covers” features the highlights from these four decades of vinyl record production.

From Chubby Checker to Elton John to Santana to Van Halen to the Beastie Boys, the book has pages and pages of beautiful full-spectrum

color images on high-grade glossy art paper of numerous albums that influenced millions of music lovers.

For some, this will be a trip down memory lane. For others, this will be an exciting dive into vinyl record art history.

And for those who just love art, you may find yourself getting lost in this gallery of memorable record album creations!

f this, dear moviegoer, rest assured: Dwayne Johnson’s biceps still ripple and glisten in the sunlight.

So do his triceps, pecs, abs, delts, quads, lats and the other 600 or so muscles of the human body.

And that charismatic, multi-million dollar grin? Still there, too.

But the dude isn’t a magician. And only a true magician could find a way to make something light and fun and fresh out of the unwieldy, derivative and mostly unfunny endeavor that is “Baywatch.”

Now, maybe the filmmakers weren’t thinking light and fun and fresh. They opted to make an R-rated film, upping the raunch factor of the ‘90s TV series starring David Hasselhoff and a slo-mo running Pamela Anderson. But the R rating doesn’t mean they’ve gone all dark and deep; it just seems to mean lots of raunchy language, humping gags and extended crotch shots. That last category includes a centerpiece scene in which our two leading men, Johnson and Zac Efron, play around with a penis on a corpse in a morgue. Yes, that’s actually what they do.

Let’s try to wipe that image out of our brains now, shall we? “Baywatch,” directed by Seth Gordon, begins by establishing the heart and brawn of our main guy, Mitch Buchannon, leader of the Baywatch squad and hometown hero.

Matt Brody (Efron), a gold-medal Olympic swimmer who has a bit of an attitude problem, joins the squad.

The plot gets wearisome, despite the best efforts of Efron and especially Johnson, who can enliven any scene.

His disdainful mocking of Efron’s character is one of the more amusing themes, especially the nicknames he uses: “Hey, One Direction.” ‘’Yo, ‘N Sync.” Best of all: “High School Musical.”

But darned if that quick reference to Efron’s breakout franchise doesn’t make you all nostalgic for some old-fashioned entertainment that didn’t rely on F-bombs, crude anatomical references, or toying with a corpse. (Sorry to bring that up again, but, UGH.) ••• Associated Press

“When workday called and asked if we would like to have a party, it was a perfect way to celebrate and reward the members’ year of accomplishments in their scholastic efforts as well as their extra enrichment activities at the BGCH.” More than 50 volunteers from Workday transformed the Kauai War Memorial Convention Hall into a mini-carnival, complete with an ice cream bar, outdoor games and activities, and a photo booth.

The group also donated $5,000 to enhance the programs at BGCH as well as provided numerous prizes for bingo cards which were filled in as more than a hundred BGCH members participated in activities.

Workday is a software company based in San Francisco producing computer programs for human resources and finances.
