In Conversation with Chefs Keaka Lee and Sheldon Simeon in this 'Locally Grown' Episode

It's no secret that our favorite cook book of the year is Cook Real Hawaii, Sheldon Simeon's tribute to his beloved Hawaii . It's a collection of recipes, born from his own multicultural background and the foods he grew up with on Maui, plus stories he's collected along the way. An awesome Father's Day gift if any of the men in your life love to cook...
And Keaka Lee, owner of Kapa Hale joins us to chat about a culinary journey that's taken him from the Culinary Institute of the Pacific, through stage-internships at Benu in San Francisco, Le Bernardin in New York City, Eleven Madison Park in NYC, & Café Boulud in NYC and from New York City's Gramercy Tavern all the way home to The Pig and The Lady.
His food at Kapa Hale is a celebration of his journey and relationships with local farmers and growers.
Enjoy!

A Conversation About Ice Cream Pies... Heather Lukela of Slice by HB Baking

There's a lot to love about this conversation with Heather Lukela - the talented baker/owner of Slice by HB Baking.. with a passion for baking that started early, Heather worked her way through some of the top kitchens in Hawaii before starting Slice - to critical acclaim.
" Being furloughed during the pandemic gave me the opportunity to really launch the business," she says of the bakery she swore she'd never start. " Hell, no... I NEVER wanted to open a bake shop or have my own place," she laughs.
Lucky for us she changed her mind.
You can find Heather and her ice cream slices within Jolene's Market
