Chef Mark’s Quick Bites: Maui

Chef Mark’s Quick Bites: Maui

We are treated to a cooking demo by Chef DK Kodama of Sansei Restaurant on the grounds of Waipoli Hydroponic Farms, which supplies many Maui restaurants with clean, hydroponically grown lettuces and greens.

We then visited with Rocky and Paulette Chenelle of Makawao Mushrooms, the ONLY sustainable mushroom farm on Maui.

At the end of the day, we ate at Chef DK Kodama’s Sansei Restaurant in Maui, where his chefs Lainie, Ivan and Royden treat us to an omikaze style feast of local fish and seafood.

I found myself by chance at the Holy Ghost Portuguese Church for their annual festival, which just happened to be taking place this weekend. I had to sample a homemade malasada, a Portuguese donut dusted with sugar, hot out of the fryer!
