Yes, Hamura Saimin is closed for renovations, but if you swung by Friday afternoon, whoa. Anson Lardizabal, “the furloughed musician,” scored on a big slab of sirloin, and Paula Jepas (she says her last name very differently from how it’s spelled) had details of the Y. Hata &Co. virtual fishbowl that already had two winners despite just being launched. Just gotta get lucky and see that Y. Hata &Co. truck (is that the same one Hailee Garcia drives?) parked somewhere. Paula said they’ll be in Waimea in early October.
