Warm childhood memories, long day pick-me-ups, solace for tummy aches and fevers. Comfort food means something different to everyone. We polled Nonstop’s team of 10 for this first Staff Picks gallery, and came up with a range of favorites that reflects Hawaii on the palate, often in its simplest, most unadorned form.

Surprises? Three of the picks were Korean dishes. Only one was a sweet. And nobody chose saimin.

And you? What all-time fave resonates from your palate to your soul? Read on to find out ours, then leave a comment and tell us yours.
