I realized that I’ve made mention of Hawaii Regional Cuisine recently, but I hadn’t really explained what distinguishes this style of cuisine. So, I found this quick video narrated by Hawaii’s award winning chef, Alan Wong. Chef Wong provides an excellent introduction to Hawaii Regional Cuisine with a behind the scenes look in his kitchen as he makes a Hawaii favorite, poke. He defines Hawaii Regional Cuisine as,

“A Contemporary style of cooking in Hawaii today that borrows from all the ethnic influences you find in Hawaii.”

Mahalo to Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau for providing the video.
