"An upscale Pacific Rim restaurant on Front Street along Lahaina’s historic waterfront that the chef led and that was closely tied to his personal history—he spent weekends in the town learning to holoholo and fish for enenue. On the morning of the August 8 fire he taped “do not open” notes to fridges during a power outage, scouted the outage and distant smoke, and witnessed the blaze engulf the town; he escaped, but both the restaurant and his nearby rental home were incinerated." - Viola Gaskell
