Happy New Year! 🥂 Thank you to all the wonderful clients over the past year who started out as strangers and ended up like family. This year was certainly filled with many ups and downs, with the loss of our beloved Lahaina, but we look forward to making more beautiful memories in 2024! ✨
We just got back from a week away getting wined and dined in Russian River! Big thanks to for organizing the best wine tastings the region has to offer Food highlights were 10 course omakase with wine pairings , charcuterie, Spud Point crab shack and the local dive bar popcorn
The only thing better than pumpkin pie…is your own personal pumpkin pie! Happy Thanksgiving from our Ohana to yours 💛
Life UPDATE! First of all, Thank you so much for all the words of support and financial donations to help our family and community who have been devastated by the Lahaina fire on August 8th. We really are eternally grateful 💛 The last week we have been happily donating our time in the kitchen with making over 400 delicious meals for our community in need Maui and specifically Lahaina rely heavily on tourism for our economy. Thousands no longer have homes or jobs overnight. But most of all, our hearts will forever be with the hundreds of souls who were lost in the fire. As cliche as it sounds, it’s never felt more true- It will be a long road ahead. Please continue to donate directly to the families in need/ sponsor a family/ buy from local Maui businesses online/ book a Maui vacation to any of the other parts of the island. We look forward to the day we can welcome you back to our home 💛
