Karapu Lit: Te Karapu Pukapuka
Te kokoru o Lanphier, Connecticut 
KA TAEA E KOE TE KITENGA I A RĀTOU KO "Ngā Kōtiro o te Raumati" ko "Ngā Hoa o te Āhuarangi Pai" rānei nā te mea ka huihui tēnei rōpū o te 15 i waenganui i te marama o Mei ki te marama o Hepetema. Heoi, i roto i aua marama torutoru, he nui ngā rohe e kapi ana i a rātou—i roto i ngā pukapuka me ngā maero.
Nā te aha i ngā marama raumati anake?
He hapori raumati a Lanphier Cove i Long Island Sound, ā, he iti noa ngā whare iti he whakamahana, he ārai rānei. Nō reira, ko te nuinga o mātou ka haere ki tētahi atu wāhi i ngā marama hotoke. He tino makariri rawa i konei i ngā marama hotoke.
Āe, he aha te take o tō ingoa—Te Karapu Pukapuka? He ahua hoha, kāore?
Āe, tera pea ka taea e tātou te whakaaro mō tētahi ingoa hou. Āe, he taahiraa tēnei ki te huarahi tika. —Kaiwhakatika.]
E whā marama tōu? Ko tōna tikanga kua pānui koe i ngā pukapuka e whā?
Kāo. Ka tūtaki mātou i ia rua wiki ki te kōrero mō tētahi pukapuka rerekē. Nō reira, tata rite tonu te nui o ngā pukapuka e pānuihia ana e mātou e tētahi karapu o te tau katoa.
He mea whakamiharo tēnā! Ka taea e koe te homai i ētahi taitara?
Anei tā mātou rārangi o ngā mea o tēnei raumati:
Aroha ana ki a Frank
Te Pō Whakamutunga i te Kōura
Tekau mā Toru o ngā Kōrero
Haere ki te Hau
E toru Kapu Tii
Nga Pou o te Ao
Pukapuka Tunu Kai a Whaea Wilkes Boardinghouse nā Sema Wilkes
Āhea koe ka whiriwhiri ai i āu pukapuka?
Ka whakarite mātou i tā mātou rārangi pānui i te marama o Hepetema, ā, ka ngana ki te whakarerekē i ngā momo tuhinga—he pakiwaitara o nāianei, he pukapuka rongonui, he pukapuka kore-pūrākau, he pukapuka whakamahara, he pukapuka ngaro, he rotarota, he pakiwaitara poto rānei. Kātahi ka whiriwhiria e mātou tētahi pukapuka "momona" hei pānui māu i te takurua.
Ka whiriwhiria hoki e mātou he pukapuka tunu kai—he pukapuka kei roto ngā tuhinga roa, ngā maharatanga rānei—kātahi ka arotahi te hui ki ngā tohutao kei roto.
He mea ngahau te ahua o ngā hui pukapuka tunu kai.
He tino reka. I puta mai i tētahi o ā mātou pukapuka tunu kai he haerenga e toru hāora ki Niu Ioka. I kai mātou i te wharekai nō te kaituhi o Ngā Rōra Kōura me te Pai Purūpere—Rebecca Charles. He pukumahi a Rebecca i te kīhini, engari i uru mai ia ki te kōrero ki a mātou i muri i te kai tina.
Ko tētahi atu haerenga ko te Culinary Institute of America i Hyde Park, New York, i te taha tonu o te awa o Hudson. I kai mātou i te āhua Wīwī i muri i te pānui pukapuka. Te Ākonga: Tōku Ao i te Kīhini nā Jacques Pepin.
Ā, me pēhea te hui pukapuka tunu kai o tēnei tau?
I noho mātou ki reira—engari kāore mātou i hiakai. Ka pānui mātou Pukapuka Tunu Kai a Whaea Wilkes— tērā pea ētahi o ō kaipānui e mōhio ana ki tōna wāhi i Savannah. He tino rongonui.
Hei whakanui i tēnei kaituhi whakamiharo, 93-tau te pakeke, i whakakiia e mātou ā mātou pereti ki ngā kai o te Tonga: tio me te pīnihi, te tōpana ātikōti, te makaroni me te tiihi, te pīti pīkara, te heihei parai, te paukena tapatapahi, te tōmato āpikī, te huamata karaka, te keke paināporo-hurihuri me te Boardinghouse Truffle (tirohia ngā whakaahua).
Kua oti i a koe ētahi atu hononga pukapuka, āe?
Ae, ehara i te kai noa iho tā mātou haerenga ki Niu Ioka. I mua i te tina i toro atu mātou ki te Whare Taonga o Frick i te 5th Avenue ki te mātakitaki i te peita rongonui a Vermeer mai i Te kōtiro me te whakakai pērara—ko tētahi tēnei o ā mātou pukapuka.
I muri i te tina ka anga atu mātou ki te Whare Taonga o ngā Hītori Taiao mō tētahi kiriata motuhake mō Lewis & Clark, he pukapuka i uaua ki a mātou te whakaoti.
Ā, i te kāinga i tīmata ai koe i tētahi whare pukapuka tuku moni ā-hapori?
Āe. I tangohia e te rōpū tētahi wāhi whare pukapuka, ā, i tīmata te Whare Pukapuka Lanphier Lending. He pukapuka mā ngā pakeke me ngā tamariki ā mātou. E whakahaerehia ana i runga i te pūnaha honore, ā, ka tūao ngā mema mō te wiki i te raumati ki te whakatuwhera me te kati i te Whare Pukapuka i ia rā, me te whakarite anō i ngā whata me te whakatika i ngā pukapuka. He tino pai te mahi, ā, he tino rongonui ki ngā kainoho.
He aha atu anō...haunga te whakaaro i tētahi ingoa hou? Ā, me pēhea ā koutou hui?
Āe...ka tū ā mātou hui i te tīmatanga o te ahiahi me te kōrero me te kai māmā. Ko te tikanga, ka tukuna e te kaihautū he kōrero mō te kaituhi me te pukapuka. Kātahi ka tukuna e ia o mātou whakaaro, ā, ka whai ake ko te kōrero whānui. Tata ki te haora me te hawhe te roa o ngā hui, ā, nā te mea he rōpū kore ōkawa mātou, kāore te wā e pau i ngā wā katoa ki te kōrero pukapuka. Ko te mea rerekē ki tā mātou whakatakotoranga noa ko te hui pukapuka tunu kai.
