This story is your passport to a Hawai‘i many people never see. We travel to Lahaina, on Maui, to explore an ancient treasure located in the unlikeliest of places: beneath the softball mounds of a county park. We also visit Chef Chai Chaowasaree, a master at incorporating local flavors into his menus, who shares one of his favorite recipes with us.
What’s on the menu? Everything from local-style plate lunches to Island favorite poke to barbecued brisket. And it’s all available at an unlikely place – from a truck. Or trucks, to be more precise. More than 30 food trucks and other street food vendors gather for Eat the Street, a celebration of street cuisine held on the last Friday of every month in the Kaka‘ako neighborhood, between downtown Honolulu and Ala Moana.
Which Hawai‘i restaurants are “local secrets?” We find out in this story, which takes us to some of the dining establishments with a loyal local following. Discover why a rich blend of culinary influences and a commitment to bringing out the best of locally sourced ingredients is the perfect recipe for a very ono (delicious) restaurant.
While it is true that Hawai‘i is highly dependent on imported food, it is possible to eat fresh and support home-grown Island agriculture at the same time. Farmers Markets are an important ingredient in this movement toward fresh, local produce.
This is not your ordinary curry. Hawaiian Airlines Executive Chef Beverly Gannon, one of the founders of the Hawai‘i Regional Cuisine movement, walks you through the steps to preparing an Island-influenced curry.
Salmon cakes, Hawaiian style. In this episode, Hawaiian Airlines Executive Chef Beverly Gannon again shows you how to recreate the tastes of the Islands back home in your own kitchen.
