PHOTO COURTESY COURTESY HAWAII GOVERNOR'S OFFICE
An Open Letter To Gov. David Ige On the Carleton Ching-DLNR Fiasco
David Ige
Hon. Governor David Ige, Wow, sucked to be you last week. I mean, you’re still governor of the 40th most populous state in the U.S., and absolutely entitled to all the authority and prestige granted to you by that office, but damn–Wednesday, Mar. 18 was not a good day. And it was your fault, too. You forgot your Machiavelli, and it hurt you at a time when most of the state is still getting to know you. “[A] Prince, as has already been said, should consider how he may avoid such courses as would make him hated or despised,” Niccolo Machiavelli wrote in The Prince about 500 years ago (sure, the Catholic Church excommunicated
Machiavelli for his brutal, amoral advice, but he sure understood political motivations). It seems so simple, so obvious, and yet last week, it happened to you. Nearly two months ago, on Jan. 23, you nominated Castle & Cooke lobbyist Carleton Ching to be Chairperson of the state Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR). Right from the getgo, environmental activists across Hawaii cried out in terror and fury. “We were blind-sided by this appointment,” Sierra Club Hawaii spokesperson Anthony Aalto told KHON 2 News three days after you made the Ching nomination. “It was announced on Friday and the truth is, we’ve actually been overtaken by the reaction of just our average members. One of our mem-
bers started a petition. We already have nearly 5,000 signatures on that petition. There were nearly 2,000 signatures within 24 hours.” Think about this a moment: you announced Ching on a Friday. By the end of the next day–a Saturday–2,000 people had already signed a petition asking you to rescind that nomination. By the end of that weekend, another 3,000 people added their names to the Sierra Club’s petition. You’ve been in the state Legislature since late 1985–have you seen that kind of opposition flare up that quickly, that furiously? Even the Superferry controversy was a gradual movement, and mostly limited to the Neighbor Islands. Did you ask yourself why people–liberals, a key part of your political base– were suddenly infuriated? Machiavelli would have known. “A Prince, as I have said before, sooner becomes hated by being rapacious and by interfering with the property and with the women of his subjects, than in any other way,” he wrote in The Prince. That’s what you did–you started messing with the property of the people of Hawaii. The DLNR isn’t just another department. For many people in this state, it’s a guardian of precious lands that belong to us all. The Department of Land and Natural Resources is a steward over 1.3 million acres of Hawaii, and another 750 miles of coastline. And you were going to hand the keys to a man who’s spent the last decade promoting the interests of a land developer. For liberal environmentalists, who largely abandoned your predecessor Neil Abercrombie for you in the 2014 election, this was a call to arms. But rather than take it seriously, you dug in behind Ching. The result was two months of meetings with legislators and activists around the state. Sure, lots of people said Ching was a nice guy, but opposition only grew. By the time the Senate Committee on Water and Land took up the nomination earlier this month, Ching was in dire trouble. I know you wanted to show that you had his back by sitting behind him during the committee hearings, but doing so exposed you to two types of criticism. First, that you were abandoning other, possibly more important tasks in favor of helping out Ching. Secondly, and what Machiavelli would say was more important, you permanently fastened yourself to Ching’s fate. “Princes should devolve on others those matters that entail responsibility and reserve to themselves those that relate
to grace and favor,” Machiavelli wrote. If the Senate gave Ching the nod–as you seemed to assume they would–then it all would have worked out. But the Senate is run by Democrats, who often take the voice of the public seriously. And in this case, their constituents were telling them repeatedly to can Ching. This was a risk for a lame-duck governor, not one who hasn’t even been in office six months. The final committee vote on Mar. 12, in which just two of the seven members voting in favor of Ching, was a disaster. Yes, some senators like Democrat Les Ihara gave mixed signals about maybe voting against Ching in the committee but for him on the Senate floor. But come on–anyone could have predicted that the environmental groups arrayed against Ching would smell more than a little blood in the water and ramp up their already considerable populist lobbying against the nomination. Which they did. The result was a total defeat–you withdrew the nomination after legislators finally, belatedly, convinced you that Ching would never survive a full Senate vote. You could have pulled the nomination a month ago (or, better yet–never made it in the first place), but by holding on so long, political watchers around Hawaii are now saying that you’ve been weakened. “One of Ige’s selling points was that he had a great working relationship with the Legislature,” UH political science professor Colin Moore told Civil Beat the day you withdrew the nomination. “To really try to push this vote and lose, it’s very damaging.” Or, as Machiavelli put it, “In his private dealings with his subjects his decisions should be irrevocable, and his reputation such that no one would dream of overreaching or cajoling him.” A year from now, no one will be talking about this. But for those in the state still trying to assess who you are, and what kind of governor you’ll be, it’s a disturbing development. As far as who you nominate now to take over DLNR, that’s your call. Hey, here’s a thought, though: go to the department itself, as well as people who shut down the Ching nomination– organizations like the Sierra Club–and ask their advice. They want to support you, and I can’t think of a better way to start fixing this mess. Very truly yours, Anthony Pignataro ■ anthony@mauitime.com + @apignataro For more news articles, visit: mauitime.com/news

MAUI PREP ROBOTICS TEAM HEADS TO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS
UH MAUI COLLEGE GETS SUSTAINABILITY AWARDS University of Hawaii Maui College received awards last week for academic and student work in sustainability. The awards were presented during the third annual statewide Hawaii Sustainability in Higher Education Summit held at the UH Manoa campus. Executive Director Alex de Roode accepted the UHMC Campus Sustainability award for the Sustainable Living Institute of Maui on behalf of a team including Melanie Stephens and Austin Van Heusen. “The knowledge that we are within a system that supports and recognizes sustainability efforts and achievements inspires and motivates us to broaden our scope and increase our impact within our local community and beyond,” said de Roode, who was nominated by UH Maui Chancellor Lui Hokoana for leadership in building Hawaii’s green economy. UHMC student Pierre Parranto received a system-wide award for leadership in student and community engagement; the honor was presented by UH President David Lassner. Parranto, who is working towards a Bachelor’s degree in Sustainable Science Management, helms
maui.hawaii.edu/ssm and sustainablemaui. org. The policy can be viewed online at go.hawaii.edu/8G. The Sustainable Science Management program is partially funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Labor in the amount of $320,694. Funding does not pay for student costs to participate. Auxiliary aids and services are available upon request to individuals with disabilities.
GEORGE KAHUMOKU, JR. CROWD-FUNDS NEW DOCUMENTARIES The love of film and music have come together in an independent film series documenting the lives of prominent Hawaiian musicians. Slack key artist, performer and teacher George Kahumoku Jr. is seeking supporters to help continue his film series with two new movies featuring Martin Pahinui, the youngest son of slack key legend Gabby Pahinui, and Brother Noland, a slack key innovator and composer. Kahumoku is following the trend of independent filmmaking by seeking crowdfunding via a Kickstarter campaign. The financial support of a previous Kickstarter campaign was used to fund Kahumoku’s documentary Seeds Of Aloha, Richard Ho‘opi‘i’s The Timeless Voice and Dennis Kamakahi’s The Legend of the Grey Wolf. The two new films are projected to be an hour long, and each will tell about the artists through their own eyes. The deadline for financial support is Mar. 31. If you’re interested in the project or want to support it, visit Mastersofhawaiianmusic.com. Kahumoku and his family thank the community for its continued support. ■ editor@mauitime.com For more news articles, visit: mauitime.com/news

Maui Preparatory Academy’s robotics team–the iPueo–has qualified to go to the World Robotics Championships, quite a feat for a new team. The 6th and 7th graders of the iPueo team came together just three months ago under the guidance of teacher and coach Branden Hazlet, Director of Technology for Maui Prep. In that short time, the iPueo worked its way up to a 28 ranking in Robot Driving Skills among the thousands of Middle School robotics teams across the world. The team went to the University of Hawaii Hilo Astronaut Onizuka Robotics Competition with hopes of only building a little experience for next year’s robotics season. Instead, the team ended up qualifying for the State VexIQ Championships based on a First Place award for Robot Design and a Second Place finish in Robotics Programming. According to a team spokesperson, the iPueo then headed to the State Championships in February with only a “long shot,” being they were such a “newbie” team. But at the State competition, the iPueo earned another first place award for Robot Design, a third place finish in Robot Driver Skills and third in the Finalist Round. With the various scores and rankings considered, the Maui Prep team was awarded the highest Middle School honor in the state–the Excellence Award–which qualified them for the World Championships. Though they worked hard for the honor, team members reportedly never expected to take the State Title and qualify for World Competition at this juncture in the team’s history. Having achieved such rapid success has created a bit of a funding challenge for the students in order for them to take advantage of the opportunity to compete
in the four-day 2015 VEX World Championships which will include nearly 800 teams from more than 400 VEX Robotics Competition tournaments. The iPueo team has begun fundraising efforts to help send the students and their teacher to the Championships to represent the excellent young minds of Hawaii. If members of the public are interested in helping to send the iPueo to this international event, contact Hazlet at bhazlet@ mauiprep.org, via ipueo.myevent.com or by phone at 808-665-9966. You can also order your own iPueo logo hat, shirt, or your own custom robot at the website above.
the Student Ohana for Sustainability at UHMC, and raises awareness about sustainability on campus as President of the Student Activities Council. “Our student projects focus on community service including beach cleanups, rain gardens, water-bottle refill stations, and awareness campaigns,” Parranto said. “Bringing this award home to Maui encourages us to continue our efforts like organizing an upcoming campus Earth Day event.” Recognized for leading the first degree program in sustainability in the UH System, UHMC Program Coordinator Tim Botkin accepted the faculty award for leadership in advancing sustainability from President Lassner. Botkin said the award recognizes that the Sustainable Science Management program is more than just curriculum. “It’s a connector for developing knowledgeable leadership for Maui, Hawaii and beyond,” Botkin said. During the summit, a historic moment for the University of Hawaii system occurred when Lassner electronically signed a new executive policy on sustainability. The policy sets specific goals for UH including achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, and provides a framework for the university to fulfill its commitment to sustainability in operations, curriculum, scholarship and engagement. “The establishment of a core fabric of sustainable thinking, working across all disciplines, is an important academic mission,” Botkin said. “But even more important is the work our graduates will do as they join the workforce to help map the future of our islands.” Botkin’s program is also developing new shorter term certificates in Sustainable Tourism and Sustainable Technology to apply the principles of sustainability to local industries.

By Jen Russo n Maui, our food scene is tight-knit. You start life with a giant food festival in your honor celebrating your first year, where all your family’s cooks throw down. All the aunties bring their specialties. As we grow, meals are social events, but they’re also personal–your heart goes into what you make. We never grow out of eating and sharing together as a social event. This culture permeates our farm-to-table community. Our journey to become more self-sufficient has brought us closer ties to where our food grows, how we harvest it and how we prepare it. In every aspect of the local restaurant industry, family infuses itself into the flavor of every ingredient and dish from the ground to the kitchen to the table. Destination dining truly starts at the family table. This issue delves into the family stories of our county’s chefs, farmers and restauranteurs to find out how their ohana finds a way into your food.

Enjoy!
JOJO VASQUEZ Executive Chef, Plantation House My father was the first person to influence me in culinary as a profession. He started our family catering company back in Chicago in 1985 and it was All Hands On Deck. Seeing that he created meals that were surrounded by special events and happy customers always brought a sense of pride to our home kitchen. I’m a product of his organization–timeliness and sense of urgency all traits necessary for a successful kitchen. My biggest supporters and critics are my family. We’re passionate about food and I always look forward to sharing meals with them–it’s our quality time. It’s this warmth and connection I want portrayed to our guests, like it’s their dining room. A good meal will leave someone satisfied, but a great meal, attention to service and a warm setting will leave someone with fond memories. If there’s love in the kitchen, food and service, then it will be translated to the guest experience. If we’re dining out, Sale Pepe has a menu that our ohana loves. You know it’s family run and that’s something we love to support. PHOTO BY SEAN M HOWER

JAMIE BIRRER Owner, Zing Maui People who work together in the restaurant business form strong bonds because you have to be able to work together as a team and be able to rely on each other and still have fun, even when things get a little hectic. Here at Zing, we work together–husband, wife and mother. We all grew up growing gardens and using the veggies and fruits for cooking and canning. We also had great family values instilled that include taking care of and respecting the earth and nature. Working with family can be tricky at times, but to our advantage we know each other well, know what to expect from one another and know we can count on each other. We have a great team and our employees are our ohana, too.
GEMSLEY BALAGSO Chef, Star Noodle StarNoodle.com My grandmother was one of my first mentors in the kitchen. She always had fresh rice and something delicious on the stove to eat after school. She’s probably the most memorable relative that’s influenced my cooking career. Although she can’t cook anymore, I still imitate her cooking. When I was growing up, she was my main caretaker and always fed me fresh farmed veggies from the backyard and fresh meat from a local farm. At a very young age, I was learning to enjoy and embrace her techniques and traditions.
Today, much of our food is imported despite the efforts made by our elders to carry on supplying local food for future generations. My family and I are trying to keep our gardens and family pig farm a living practice. This way of life was passed on to my grandmother, and then to me. For me, that’s where all the recipes started–with tradition and exceptional local products. The staple foods of Hawaii and the region’s influences were the beginning of this cuisine. Most of our dishes at Star Noodle are family-style, as our theme is small plates and family-style dining. We like to promote sharing because the intimacy helps with having a good time.
KURT LESMERISES Chef de Cuisine, Molokini Bar & Grille, Makena Beach & Golf Resort Makenaresortmaui.com My father played a huge role in where I am today in my culinary career. I was born on a farm in New England; my family raised and taught me about respect for meat and produce and importance of quality. My father was also an engineer for a large computer company and he traveled a lot for his career. This gave him a chance to accumulate a wealth of culinary knowledge, which he shared with me. If my father wasn’t traveling, you could find him in the kitchen with me by his side. Having grown up with a mother who battled cancer, cooking and eating healthy was a lifelong mission for her and a huge part of my introduction to the culinary arts. Overall health consciousness and dietary knowledge, such as the importance of using the right kind of oils in the correct manner or how vital whole grains and raw vegetables are for a healthy lifestyle, has been passed on to me and affects how I cook at the restaurant and in my own kitchen. Hands down, the richest dish on the menu would be the vintage natural beef filet and butter poached lobster with Kumu Farms carrots, garlic mashed potatoes, port wine demi-glace and lemongrass butter. Although a strong seller, it’s not exactly the first pick for people who are overly health conscious… but it’s nothing a little post dinner exercise can’t fix.

It’s hard to name just one person that inspired me but if I had to it would be my stepfather. My Hawaiian side of the family (my mother’s side) and my mainland family (my stepfather’s side) were all hunters, fishermen and farmers, and have influenced the way I cook and eat. My family believed that the best ingredients are gathered and grown on your own. That’s the only way you know their true origins. My family always used the freshest ingredients and this is what I bring to the kitchen. I also like to keep an open dialogue with all of the staff (kind of like an older brother), to keep things moving in the right direction. Family-style menus are great for conversation and guest interaction. Guests ask more questions and are more apt to learn the whole scope of the menu’s preparation. In Hawaii, I like to eat at traditional Chinese restaurants like Dragon Dragon. Sadly, they closed, so I’m in search for a new favorite. I also enjoy Longhi’s Lahaina for family-style eating.
In Hana, we’re all family. We come together as a community when someone’s in need of any kind of help. I work with 100 percent of my family at Hana Ranch, we work as a team and we treat each other like family. My mom has been the inspiration in my life. When I was growing up she would make us clean her garden with her. My
BRET SCOTT PAFFORD Chef, Gannon’s Pacific View Restaurant While growing up, my grandparents had a fully operating family farm that included everything from livestock to garden vegetables. Grandmother was passionate about jarring homemade tomato sauce, green beans, pickled peppers and many others. She was all about preserving the harvest for the winter months ahead. I always think about that, especially when I’m painstakingly shredding a sack of horseradish for pickling. Of course, now jarring has been replaced by vacuum sealing, but it’s the same principle. At Gannon’s, we have a large number of share plates. These dishes are presented on larger plates and easily can be passed around the tables. My personal favorites are the kung-pau calmari and the raw-raw. The later dish is made with honey yuzu and avocado oil with shredded jicama and green apple and beautiful slices of fresh Ahi and Hamachi that are quickly dipped in citrus. Before shingling with avocado, it’s seasoned with crunchy black Molokai sea salt. It’s all prepared on a frozen glass plate. If my family is eating out, we go to Saigon Café in Wailuku. I like the oxtail soup and the black bean whole fried opaka.
mom likes to get down and dirty. Working in the farm and creating a meal isn’t like going to the grocery store and buying things to cook. We would plant things in our backyards and use that to prepare food with whatever beef, pork or canned goods we have in our cabinets or freezers. When we do go out to eat family-style, it’s going to be a BBQ down at Hana Bay.

RYAN AND NIKOLE MCELROY Owners, Chez Meme Bistro & Bakery Baguettebistromaui.com Our family has a tremendous influence on the quality of our food. We’re constantly working to ensure that we’re only serving items that are really, really good. If we don’t think it meets our high standards, we won’t serve it. In fact, Ryan’s dad, Duke McElroy, grows most of our mangos, papayas, tomatoes, avocados, and other fresh ingredients. That’s why you only see them on our menu when they are in season. Our “Maui Meme,” Sharon McElroy, creates the jams that we serve and sell at Chez Meme. Her most popular jam is the Mango Ginger, but she recently created a Papaya Ginger and a Hawaiian Tropical jam. Customers who purchase our jams often write us to let us know that it feels like Maui in their kitchen. Our favorite family-style restaurant is Thailand Cuisine in Kihei. We order several dishes and pass them around.
JURG MUNCH Owner, Lahaina Grill Lahainagrill.com My Italian grandmother was a big inspiration for my interest in cooking at an early age. Our family at Lahaina Grill truly have grown up together–many of our staff have worked together for more than 20 years. Since we’re celebrating 25 years this year, it’s amazing to look back at how many of our ohana have been here together and many have worked here and moved away. Then they return to Maui and are back in the family! When my daughter was first born, we paid close attention to what we fed her and what we cooked for her: organic, locally grown as much as possible. This translated into the food that we serve at
the restaurant. Researching and sourcing the best ingredients has always been of the utmost importance. Many of our guests enjoy sharing the “From the farm” section of our menu. It’s a fun way to try different fresh vegetable side dishes and share with the table. We enjoy going to Star Noodle with our family and also Japengo at Hyatt Regency Maui. We order up a lot of food (too much sometimes!) and everyone jumps in.
LEE ANDERSON Chef, Sugar Beach Events It wasn’t a family member who inspired me, it was a restaurant family member. My first serious cooking job was in an Italian restaurant where we made everything from scratch. I had the privilege of working with the director of Culinary Development and I knew I was where I was meant to be. I really learned to love Italian food and I have hints of it, as well as items from my Southern roots, on my menu offerings. It also helps that I’ve made it a habit to travel to Italy every two years to work on my craft. When you share a passion with people, I think it naturally brings you together. As much time as we spend at work and as close as the quarters are, it’s always best when employees develop bonds. We all take our jobs seriously and realize the impact we can have on the most important day in a person’s life. We want that impact to be nothing less than amazing. In catering, family-style is definitely a trend–it’s very nostalgic. We can do most anything on our menu family-style. Our clients are interested in the idea of people coming together over dinner and creating new friendships. I think it makes people feel at ease. I always go to Sansei for a family-style experience. We usually take a group of friends and order more sushi than we could ever consume, but that doesn’t stop us from trying every time.

NATASHA GOULD The Manapua Bakery Manapuabakery.com Growing up, my father owned a deli. I spent my childhood in the kitchen watching my dad and his sisters cooking. One aunt in particular always stood out, as she was a true baker in my eyes. [Fellow owner Keone Smith’s] mother was an amazing cook who prepared meals in the country side of Hana for large family gatherings. The common denominator in both of our childhood stories is that our family cooked as a labor of love and took great joy in seeing the smiles of people who ate their food. In a family, everyone has their place. Much like a kitchen, in order to have a properly functioning family everyone has to do their part. Like a family with teenagers, not every day is sunshine and candy. Our inspiration is the family tradition of waking up on a Saturday morning and grabbing a box of Manapua to share with any family passing through. Keone’s childhood favorite was Aiea Manapua. Working with family in the kitchen helps to keep things light during stressful moments, knowing at the end of the day we all care for each other and genuinely enjoy each other’s company. For family dining, our family likes Saeng’s Thai Food. We enjoy the atmosphere and variety of the menu. We’re also dying to try Poi by the Pound and Aria’s!
BEV GANNON Chef/Owner, Hali‘imaile General Store Bevgannonrestaurants.com My inspiration for everything in my world of food is my husband, Joe. He’s been my biggest fan from the beginning of my life with food. Because of Joe’s work, he traveled constantly and was subject to meals of pizza and burgers and fast food on the road. When he came home, I would cook three- and four-course meals for him. I was consumed by food magazines and cookbooks for inspiration: Lamb Tajin from Morocco, Bouillabaise from Marsaille, paella from Barcelona. He kept me on my toes and gave me the incentive to want to cook outrageous meals. It gave me great knowledge of flavors and flavor combinations. If it weren’t for him, I would probably not be a chef. Joe and I have been known to run a menu at a restaurant, take only a few bites of a dish and send it away so that we can truly understand the food.

You cannot work in this business as hard as everyone does and not form some kind of family unit. I always say our employees are our extended family. At the Hali‘imaile General Store, we are not really serving family-style menus but we do encourage our guests to pick menu items to share so they get the full culinary experience. My favorite way to dine is to order items that sound great off a menu and share with whoever is at the table. I think everything on the menu is great for family, but the popcorn shrimp seems to leave the kids wanting more. The presentation with real popcorn wins over the kids every time.
CHRISTOPHER MALIK COUSINS Chef/Owner, Farmacy Health Bar My mother is the most influential person as far as educating me to the values of nutrients in food and being aware of what you put in your body. She never ate anything without examining it thoroughly, finding out where it was from and how it was grown. She warned me 25 years ago about eating organic and the importance of having an alkaline bloodstream. She made me all sorts of extremely healthy food and when I wrote the menu I took my favor-

Food Issue ite items. My stepfather Inoch is also a major influence and a lot of his Caribbean-style has rubbed off. And I would probably still be working for someone else if it wasn’t for my oldest son. When he was young, I realized that I was never around to see him–I was always working. That’s why I changed to do something where he could be included in my life. I have two other shops that are ice cream and shave ice. They are both wonderful but when I would frequent them with my children to do chores I would inevitably have to give them treats. I knew that if I was to open a health-based shop then we would eat better as a family and this has been absolutely true. We drink sugar cane juice and have acai bowls instead of ice cream and shave ice and the results have been amazing to my children. Also, every boy seeks his mother’s approval and although my mother seemed happy for me with my ice cream success, I never felt as if she was truly proud. Now I feel as if I accomplished that goal with Farmacy. When we go out as a family, we like to eat at Choice Health Bar and Honu. We also seem to end up at Cafe O’Lei a lot.

My dad is a welder by trade, but he’s the best chef that I know. Not to the point where he is so technical, but he can take something and make it delicious. Every time he visits from Hilo we have a big get-together. Last time he came it was my son’s first birthday. We know how much work it is to throw a big party so I thought we would just have a small party at Laniuopoko. Dad said, “No way, that’s your son. We’re going to cook.” So we threw down. We cooked. Anytime we’re talking, it’s all about food. Our whole life, we’ve been surrounded by food. Growing up, food was the center of everything in our family. I have one older brother and he’s also a chef.

Hawaii Correctional Center. He has worked at hotels, independent restaurants–he holds his own. My dad comes to Maui and tries my food. He likes it. I’m always learning from him, but now, he gets introduced to new ingredients from me. He’s always experimenting. After Top Chef, I needed to figure out what kind of chef I really wanted to be. I know how to cook Filipino food, but I don’t really. I never asked my dad to really teach me his dishes. Before I would watch from afar. But now we cook together, so I can learn his dishes. For example, I’m learning this dish called Igado. I prepped everything the same as him–cutting boards side by side, same pots, same spoons. When he adds an ingredient, I add an ingredient; when he turns up a flame, I turn up a flame. When he stirs, I stir. At the end of it, we’ve done everything identical, but I still think his dish taste better. It’s uncanny–there’s something he does that makes it so much more delicious.
TOM MUROMOTO Chef, Tiki Terrace Restaurant, Kaanapali Beach Hotel Kbhmaui.com My dad, mom, wife and sister are all great cooks and I gather a lot of ideas from them. My wife has a knack for very tasty and healthy foods and she influences me to eat healthy. My dad and mom provided me with great flavors and great comfort food. As for my sister, she can make anything from using cheap canned goods to roasting the best pot roast. She could make anything very tasty and good. Boy, she could cook. I guess you could say that it’s these people who inspired me. When creating dishes, I think back to my upbringing and the traditional family gatherings when we all would bring food. The food was simple and natural. It’s not necessary to overdo it. What inspired me to have a family-style menu were the many travels to the Livermore

Food Issue Wine Festival. There I got an opportunity to cook and dine in a terrific upscale Chinese restaurant called Uncle Yu’s. The volume and the consistency of how the food went out and how people enjoyed it was a WOW! for me. That gave me an idea to offer a new family-style menu at Kupanaha Magic Dinner Theater. Guests at the magic show can now have that same experience I did. It seems to break the ice and put everyone at ease doing something in common. It reminds me of great times at home growing up at the big family table.

Outreach Team Leader, Down To Earth
My wife is a very clean eatϖer and is also pescatarian. I love to cook vegetarian dishes for her, and she’s always open to try something new. A lot of things I have made for her in the past have inspired similar flavor profiles in our restaurant. My family has inspired me to new levels of having fun with food. My daughter Lucy (9) has always wanted to cook her own things. She makes her own “maccy cheese,” egg omelette muffin sandwiches and Pasta Alfredo. Also, my family inspires me to work hard and gives me energy to do what I do, day-in and day-out. When people come to our restaurants in groups, we want them to have fun, kick back and relax. One example that we recently implemented at DUO is serving oysters in a fishing tackle
I was inspired by my great aunt to cook. She brought our family together through Italian cooking. I have since “vegetarianized” her recipes. Aunt Gloria loved to feed people as much as she loved to cook, and I’ve inherited that gene. She was the glue that kept us all together, and she put so much love into her food. This is always my first ingredient in the recipes I share at our cooking classes at Down to Earth. I cook healthy and delicious food for my family at home. When I’m wanting a night off from cooking, we eat at Down to Earth, where I feel great about the ingredients and the food made from scratch with love. For families looking for something good, I suggest the Mock Chicken Tofu wrap. I also love the Life Foods Burger with extra pickles.

COREY A. WAITE Chef, Monkeypod Kitchen Monkeypodkitchen.com My father inspired me with his work ethics and attention to details. Unfortunately, my father did not have a diverse palette growing up, but he made me taste different things. In college, I expanded my taste buds. Over the years, my wife has guided me to educate our children in the importance of a family meal. Having kids and making sure that they’re satisfied in any restaurant helps their parents enjoy their meal. Our restaurant serves many items that are easily shared items and are quick to prepare. Families love that part. It’s a great comfort in being able to exchange conversation while partaking in a wonderful meal. Our salads and pizzas are very healthy and use local farmers in Maui to showcase this. Most of the ingredients are organic or vegan. I love the fact that our restaurant has several family members working together. They have a strong sense of teamwork and commitment. “Finish each day strong,” my father always said. To this day, I work towards that.
MARCUS D. WHISENANT Chef, Leoda’s Kitchen and Pie Shop Leodas.com It’s hard to pinpoint just one person in my family who’s inspired me. Both of my grandmothers were wonderful cooks. Growing up, I always used to hang out in the kitchen with them. I also had an aunt who would let me help her out in the kitchen. She bought me my first real chef’s apron and toque when I was young. That’s a great memory. You’re with your coworkers pretty much more than your family, especially in this business. You form bonds and friendships with one another. I think what makes this happen is that this business can be stressful at times and it’s comforting that someone right next to you will make sure that your day gets better. My wife is the executive chef of Hoaloha Bakeshop. We work closely together because the Bakeshop supplies Leoda’s with our daily bread and pie products. With that being said, at times it can be a challenge balancing work and our personal life–especially since we have a seven-month-
old. We try to not to talk about work issues outside of work but we both really enjoy what we do. China Boat is our go-to family-style restaurant.
GEVIN S. UTRILLO Chef, Japengo, Hyatt Regency Maui From an early age, my dad has inspired my culinary career. Even after long days working in the hot Lahaina sugar cane fields, my dad would return home each night to prepare a wonderful dinner for his wife and three sons. He cooked all sorts of foods using the freshest produce, seafood and meats. I always try to cook for my family when I’m not at Japengo. It’s what my dad did for my family, and I want to continue that tradition. Now that my kids are old enough to help out in the kitchen, I involve them whenever possible, keeping safety in mind. For our family, holidays are a special time as we have themed gatherings and meals. Japengo allows for family-style options as our portions are generous enough for sharing. We value the ohana. I recommend Japengo’s Vietnamese Style Kurobuta Pork, served with sweet potato hash, Hamakua mushrooms, bacon, edamame, Maui onion and peanuts. It’s a family favorite. My favorite family restaurant is Tiffany’s in Wailuku. I love to go with my family whenever possible.
MARCUS LAGE Chef, Tommy Bahama Tommybahama.com My earliest childhood memories are of cooking with family and friends. I remember, as a young child, making breakfast and lemon meringue pie with my dad. By the time I was eight years old, I was making full meals at home. There was always some type of family party or gathering, seemed like every week. I also learned a lot from my aunts, uncles, cousins and family friends. Our gatherings were always large, fun and entertaining. When I graduated high school, my mom pushed me to go to culinary school. I had always been good at cooking, but I never thought, when I was growing up, that I would be a chef. This didn’t become my aspiration until I met my wife. Three children later, I look back at a great life and look forward to a prosperous future.

ANTON HAINES Chef, Honu Seafood and Pizza My mom and my grandma have inspired me in the kitchen. They were both good cooks. They didn’t make anything fancy but knew how to work with what we had and it was always good. Our family entertained a lot and I would always help in the kitchen because I liked to eat. I watched more cooking shows than cartoons growing up, so in time I developed a passion for food and feeding people. My wife and daughter have supported my work and long hours. Having good support at home allows my creative mind to flourish. My wife holds me down this way, gives me a good foundation. At Honu, our Mac and Cheese has three cheeses, choice of shellfish and is finished with truffle oil. It’s a unctuously cheesy carb bomb to the gut. Our Osso Bucco–pork shank braised in demi glace, finished with tomato basil Beurre Blanc and served with Marscarpone-anson mills grits–has decadent, simple clean flavors. For families, I recommend trying the whole fish. It’s an experience that’s sure to make an impression on anyone, no matter what age or where you’re from. The fish is wokfried, with black pepper soy sauce that we make and is served with a quinoa and vegetable medley. When we eat, we go to a lot of mom and pops like Sam Sato’s and Tasty Crust. Kobe’s is probably our favorite. My mother in-law works there and we know everyone so it’s like eating at home.

They join us for lunch as friends. By nightfall, they’re eating gelato and purchasing their new favorite bottle of wine here as family. The next day, we’re sharing and bonding over our adventures to Hana, our favorite beach, tales of our kids–all over a cup of coffee. It could be an Aina coffee or a pastry by the pool, a sack lunch to Hana, a day at the beach with smoothies or wine for sunset with toes in the sand. Everything from Aina could be served familystyle. Our salads made fresh everyday, as is the guacamole, Maui Onion dip, fresh fruit smoothies and sandwiches. Aina is a family. We work in a tight space, producing wonderful and amazing things. From the baristas to our chefs, we all know and care for one another, just like an ohana.

TERRY, LEANNE AND CHAD COVINGTON Co-owners, Maui Brick Oven Mauibrickoven.com Terry was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in November, 2011. Our sons were also having issues and were also diagnosed with the same thing. We found out how hard it was to find gluten-free items (which you have to do if you’re Celiac) when eating out. So with our family experiences, we decided to open a total gluten-free restaurant. We were living on the Big Island and decided to move over to Maui. Making a total gluten-free restaurant, there’s no chance for cross-contamination. Cross-contamination is a hazard in most kitchens that serve both GF foods and other items that contain gluten like wheat, rye and barley. Our restaurant is a family-owned and operated. We can depend on each other and know our strengths and weaknesses. Sometimes it’s hard to come home and leave the restaurant issues back at the restaurant, but we’re getting better at it.

pepper gives it a little kick and the rich warm coconut milk makes it feels like home. On island, my favorite family-style restaurant is Casanova in Makawao. Whether you’re a vegetarian, vegan, meat eater, elder, child, East Coaster or Cali-girl, there’s something tasty and homemade for you on their menu.
ROGER STETTLER Owner, Cow Pig Bun As a young boy, I used to spend lots of time in the kitchen with my mom who truly was the inspiration for me to become a chef. I know you’ve probably heard this a hundred times, but that’s the way it was for me. My mother was working full-time and supported three children, so we needed to help her out by doing work around the house. My job was the kitchen and making sure dinner was prepared for all of us. I’m truly thankful for my mom. At Cow Pig Bun, side dishes are commonly shared and used as family-style dishes–the mac and cheese, smashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts. Our Mac and cheese is rich and gooey, creamy and delicious, and has a bread and herb crumb crust. We like Indian food, so when the family goes out we enjoy Monsoon India.

My mother has inspired me to do the service I do in my life. She was a vibrant, free spirit; a happy and healthy woman who laughed a contagious laugh. She passed at the young age of 46, which mind-boggled me as to why such an exuberant young woman would become ill and die so quickly. This experience has inspired me to learn about disease and its connections between the mind, body, and spirit. I’ve learned that the emotional and spiritual body has a direct relationship as to where and how disease manifests in the body. Through the intelligent use of food and herbs, we can transform our body into a clean and clear portal, which allows for our mind to become more at peace and for “dis-ease” to turn return to “ease.” Right now, the healthiest and richest item I enjoy to create is my Golden Milk, inspired by Ayurveda. A woman in my life whom I consider family has been concerned with the inflammation and pain in her body as well as her immune system, so I make this Ayurvedic tonic for her. The fresh turmeric (olena), fresh ginger, and cinnamon help with her inflammation, the maple syrup is full of minerals and won’t give her that sugar crash, the black
Owner, Adoboloco.com Adoboloco all started from my love of Chicken and Pork Adobo, easily one of my favorite meals. My mom showed me how to cook it when I was about 12. She learned it from a Filipino family friend here in Kihei. She grew up cooking Vinha d’Alhos (Portuguese Pickled Pork), which is very similar to the Filipino style Adobo everyone is used to in Hawaii. I’ve been cooking it ever since, and now our kids request it. All our decisions are based on family and how it will affect the time we have together. We are following the advice of our parents and grandparents–they always told us that time goes quickly when you have kids, so make it count. We all have different jobs to do. Not all of the jobs are fun all the time, but everyone is learning how to do a good job and work hard as a team. When we eat out with family we like a few places: Tiffany’s in Wailuku, Café O’Lei, Kihei Caffe, Maui Thai Bistro and Vietnamese Cuisine in Kihei.

KAIPO NAKATA Chef, Sansei Kapalua Dkrestaurants.com My dad was my biggest inspiration in cooking. Watching him in the kitchen and mimicking what he did was very important to me. He did a lot of Japaneseinfluenced food. His mother was a chef and cooked and baked all the time. My uncle was the person who actually gave me a shot in a professional setting–running around the Sheraton Ka‘anapali kitchen at a real young age where he was the Executive Sous Chef and getting me my first kitchen job at Jameson’s Kapalua. Outdoor cooking was always a big influence in my culinary background. It shows in my cooking even to this day. Treating people with respect and understanding different attitudes and mindsets is what I always strive for. My parents are very big on that and have always guided me to be that way and, at the end of the day, living those values makes me strong.

Here at Sansei, just like in any other restaurant or even in home kitchens, we all have our ups and downs. I would be lying if I said that it’s perfect. We argue and we make up and we laugh. We also know that tomorrow’s another day. Most of our dishes here at Sansei are family-style. We encourage it and live it. During the plantation days, it was an everyday thing and people bonded and it made for a much better atmosphere. When you walk in to Sansei Kapalua, you can tell people are enjoying themselves, the food and each other. Having a five-year-old and a three-year-old makes it very challenging to go out. With my family, every restaurant turns into a family restaurant. But my favorite would have to be Tasty Crust, home of the best hot cakes in the world. They definitely have something for everyone in our family and we love ordering some kind of noodles, sandwich, plate lunch, special and, of course, the hot cakes, voted number one in the world by me and my family.
VICTORIA BRIGGS Pastry chef, Sweet Aloha Baking Company (formerly No Ka ‘Oi Cinnamon Rolls) Nokaoicinnnamonrolls.com Our cinnamon rolls were 100 percent inspired by our daughters and family. After our second daughter was born, I wanted to create a Christmas morning baking tradition for our girls. I thought about cinnamon rolls because I knew they would be something we could make together and bake in the morning while opening presents, creating a wonderful smell and lifelong memories. I had never made cinnamon rolls before, but after doing research on the Internet and talking to chefs I knew, I gave it a try and they were delicious. A Christmas tradition was born. The following year, our nephew was visiting and tried them for the first time. He loved them and made the comment that we should sell them. That sparked the idea for No Ka ‘Oi Cinnamon Rolls. Our family has affected the decisions we make about the ingredients we purchase. We try to use as many organic ingredients as possible such as our milk, eggs and cinnamon. We could purchase the non-organic version at a much cheaper price, but I only want to use ingredients I will feed my family. The most family-friendly item we sell would be a fresh baked pans of cinnamon rolls. We also sell them unbaked, so the customer can bake them at home and experience that wonderful aroma themselves. When we go out to eat as a family, we really like Mala and Honu in Lahaina. We like the idea of share plates and always order lots of different items. When the girls were very young, they figured out that what Mommy and Daddy were eating was a lot better then the items on the children’s menu and now they always want the Ahi Bruschetta.

RIKO BARTOLOME
Owner, Maui Preserved Mauipreserved.com
Chef, Cane & Canoe Caneandcanoe.com
My grandfather and my mom are my biggest family inspirations. They both started passing their knowledge to me at a young age. My mom would take me to work with her in restaurants and at family dinners, which were typical red sauce Italian Sunday meals. The biggest lessons from them had to be respect for your ingredients and putting your heart into every meal for your guests. For me personally, I was raised in restaurants that my mom worked in. Her friends and co-workers were my babysitters, the kids were all raised together and mealtime was a huge bonding experience for her and me. Our products at Maui Preserved are always best enjoyed with family. Our biggest goal is to bring Maui’s harvest to your table. Maleta–my wife–Veronica (our two-year-old) and I probably eat at home more than ever. When we go out, I’d say that more often than not it’s at Flatbread Company in Paia.
My father was always striving to be different from rest of the clan. For years, I never wanted my menu or dishes to be same as the next. My father influenced how I command my kitchens, my intensity and militaristic approach. When my parents separated, my mother raised three kids on her own. She always worked very hard, rarely thinking of herself. My mother instilled my drive and marathon work ethic. For family dining at Cane and Canoe, I recommend the Kobe Rib Eye and Kurobuta Pork Shank as they both make excellent shareable dishes. So do the side dishes such as the Brussels sprouts, broccolini and Kula corn. My family and I like to take the drive to Paia and dine at Flatbread Company. The booths are large and the food is sharable with healthy options. Once full, we like to walk around Paia town as a way to digest.
ISAAC BANCACO Executive Chef, Ka‘ana Kitchen, Andaz Both of my grandmothers influence and inspired me. On my dad’s side, my grandmother is Hawaiian-Chinese. She married my grandfather, 100 percent Filipino. She had to adapt her style to fit my grandfather’s palate. I can remember her making Chicken Adobo, Pinakbet and my favorite–Balatong. Her cooking was warm and soulful. She only had four burners, but she would make, like, six dishes. She could really plan out her whole meal. I would always be the one taking the covers off the pots and tasting everything. Very early on, she taught me how to make her adobo. The one secret ingredient in her adobo was cinnamon.My grandmother on my mother’s the other side was 100 percent Japanese, and my grandfather was 100 percent Irish. Some of my fondest memories in the kitchen were my grandmother making St. Patty’s Day corned beef and cabbage. I believe in being open to talk about your dishes. I think there are a lot of chefs that try to keep secrets from each other, but the fact of the matter is everyone copies everyone.You get inspired by eating in other restaurants and following other chefs on Instagram or looking at other chef’s menus online. I think the most valuable thing I’ve taken with me is that feeling that even though I make grandma’s adobo, mine will taste different from hers. It’s a valuable lesson. If I publish a recipe, I’m okay with sharing it. Not everyone has the team I have to execute it.You can go ahead and try to make it, but chances are you will have to come to Andaz to experience it.
KYLE KAWAKAMI Chef/Owner, Maui Fresh Streatery Food Truck My children are the biggest inspiration to my recipes and why I cook. I see so many children that are only exposed to fast food diets of mac ‘n cheese, pizzas and burgers. These dietary habits often come from the adults within the family. The changing menu concept of Maui Fresh Streatery, featuring the cuisines of many regions from around the world, extends from my attempt to expose my own children to the wonderful cultural diversity of food. From the start, we wanted Maui Fresh Streatery to be an influential part of our community. One way we do this is through our Tip Jar donations (given each month to a non-profit). I see the impact this has had on my own children’s understanding of community service and helping others. The spirit of ohana extends from my own family, to those I work with and out to the customers who support us each day.One of my family’s favorite restaurants to dine at (and we go there usually once a week) is Bistro Manila in Kahului. This unique restaurant, which puts a more formal spin on traditional Filipino food, is run by Cecille and Rey Piros. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted and welcomed like a family member. You can really tell that the food is cooked from the heart.

Teens With Guns ‘The Divergent Series: Insurgent’ is just a ‘Logan’s Run’ knock-off ★★★★★ Rated PG-13 / 119 Min.
I
n a futuristic world where society has been broken up into all-important factions, a young teen by the name of Beatrice Prior (Shailene Woodley) has been deemed a “divergent” and is now on the run. Due to her remarkable ability to take various serums and, while unconscious, survive obstacle courses (her dreams are monitored for her acumen), Beatrice is highly sought after and considered dangerous. She’s on the run with the brooding Four (played by Theo James) and trying to avoid being captured by the wicked Jeanine (Kate Winslet), who governs this cruel world. This is yet another high school fantasy masquerading as science fiction, served up as a YA book turned movie adaptation. Once again, being yourself, getting the hot guy, defying the soulless adults and escaping from your confined home room–I mean, dystopia–is the overall goal. The question I kept wondering during this lousy sequel wasn’t whether
36 MARCH 26, 2015
Woodley’s “Tris” would make it to prom– sorry, “beyond the barrier”–but whether the makers of this series have a daily mantra where they chant, “it’s nothing like The Hunger Games.” I liked Divergent, the first installment of this franchise, despite being too similar to The Hunger Games and obviously intended as a breakout showcase for Shailene Woodley. She’s a great actress, which I know from her work in The Spectacular Now and The Descendents. She acts her heart out playing Tris but, unfortunately, I don’t mean that as a compliment. She’s trying too hard and, as much as CGI enhances every leap and unintentionally hilarious slo-mo lunge she makes at Winslet, she’s not a convincing action hero. As the man snoring audibly behind me at the preview screening can attest, Insurgent is dull, cold and presents a world that is no longer fresh in a franchise with no immediacy or suspense. Despite the many explosions and overly choreographed fight scenes, this isn’t much of an action movie and never builds momentum or excitement. The best thing here are the dream sequences, with play-
This is just like a dream I just had, except the guy was Herbert Hoover
ers taking on “Sim” challenges, which offer trippy visuals. Sadly, what isn’t noteworthy is the acting. Woodley begins the movie with long hair and gives herself an improbably perfect Felicity cut, which has a Samson-like effect on her acting. I don’t mean to keep picking on her but she’s just not very good in this and, at times, looks ridiculous. The pixie haircut doesn’t help, as Tris comes across less like Katniss Everdeen and more like Tinkerbell in battle duds. Then there’s Winslet–basically an evil schoolmarm–in the kind of role Louise Fletcher could play better with one hand tied behind her back. Winslet’s blank, monotone delivery is matched by her co-star, Naomi Watts; it’s no fun watching these extraordinary actresses give dueling bad performances.
James impressed me in the first movie but is now on hand for his “hottie” qualities and little else. His goo-goo eyed closeups with Woodley are given much attention and resemble puppy love more than genuine chemistry. Watching Woodley perform opposite Miles Teller (doing one-note arrogance as Tris’ wormy opponent) only made me wish I was watching them in The Spectacular Now, where they’re both terrific. Insurgent is a silly Logan’s Run knockoff, though this franchise is so obviously modeled after The Hunger Games, which itself is a watered-down, white-washed Battle Royale. The onscreen title is The Divergent Series: Insurgent and the new installment is already scheduled for next year. I know they chose Allegiant but, considering what a stinker this is, my title suggestion is Detergent. ■

Horoscope
Sign Language ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
Insults are piled atop injury all too often, in your experience. You’ve also frequently gotten kicked while you were down, which really damaged your sense of security. Luckily, this week you get that rarest of experiences: the shining silver flip side of that coin. Don’t waste time wishing that you could lead a more balanced existence in this department, so that lucky breaks were interspersed evenly with your tumbles from grace and fortune. Unfortunately, that’s just not the way life works, so just gather up the smorgasbord of mini-miracles coming this way and take time to heal your damaged trust. That’ll get easier this week, when you can expect to get kissed, not kicked, when you’re down. TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
Your competitors are all pathetic hacks. Every one of your exes is a conniving, crazy liar. Your boss has it in for you. Your parents screwed you up, or over. The system—be it school, government, or employment—has never given you a fair shake. These are all useful myths when it comes to propping up your ego during low moments. They may have even once been true. But ultimately you’re doomed to be held back by them, rather than helped. Prepare to bid them a final farewell. This week, cast them all off like last decade’s fashions. Don’t even donate them to the Goodwill. Burn them. GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
Just as sunspots cause cellphone outages and other electromagnetic disturbances, certain astrological influences can deleteriously affect your life, causing reception problems or power outages. You can’t do much more about this than we can do about actual sunspots and the difficulties they cause. However, there are viable work-arounds (the equivalent of using a landline to make your calls instead of your cellphone) you might discover that will not only serve you well this week but remain useful tools in your arsenal for a long time to come. CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
Try another tack. The astrological wind is blowing in just the wrong direction for you to sail directly towards your goal. You’ve lately been tempted to just put down anchor, furl your sails, and wait out the weather, resuming your journey once the winds have changed. But there’s no need to give up progress, if you’re patient, creative, and persistent. Want to remain ahead of your competition and your own expectations? Embrace the excitement of the zig and the virtue of the zag, and get to where you’re going without ever once aiming directly for it.
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
This week you might feel a substantial increase in your own internal temperature. You could consequently end up more impetuous, passionate, irresponsible, childish and just plain ridiculous. And these are all, believe it or not, very very good things for you to be. Instead of being so perpetually on top of things, be silly, be righteously wrong-headed, throw it all away for a mad love affair. Believe me, your duties will still be there waiting when you’re ready to pick them up again. Wouldn’t doing them be more fun when you’re twice as happy as you are now?

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
You of all people ought to have learned the value of tact by now. You’re all too aware that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, but you also know that you’re far more likely to get what you want if you’re wheel makes music rather than just producing an irritating whine. Please do call as much attention to yourself as necessary to catalyze some action, but don’t be obnoxious about it. Insufferable complaining will only result in spit in your soup and red-flagged notes in a customer service database. Making nice, however, won’t drive anyone insane or make you look horrible, and it’ll get results you’ll like.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
For years, you were steered by that tired myth about a straight line representing the shortest distance between two points. But the last few months you’ve been trying to play with new ways of getting to where you want to go, and finding out that because life is much more complicated than junior high geometry, the shortest path from here to there is often really convoluted and doesn’t necessarily come naturally to you Sags, whose deepest instinct is to simply shoot an arrow at a target and hit it. Circle round, Sag. Even though your destination has been out of sight for longer than you can remember, you’re actually closer than you’ve ever been; in other words, it’s just around the next corner. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
Stage a jailbreak. The astrological soil is just wet enough to allow a spoon-dug tunnel beneath the razor wire-topped outer walls and attack hounds of your internal prison, but not so moist and muddy that it’ll collapse and bury you utterly. Don’t hesitate, Cap. True, you’ve been inside so long that the outside world may seem really big and scary. You might be worried that you no longer have enough resilience or flexibility to be effective out there any more. Forget that ludicrousness. If I were you, the only thing that’d concern me is getting out before the guard tower spotlight sweeps by again.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)
Sugarcoat it, for once. You’ve been dealing in nothing but bald truths, hard facts, uncensored emotion and naked opinions for months and months now. And while I normally applaud this kind of radical honesty— especially considering the good it’s done you—you’re enlightened enough to bite your tongue occasionally. Not to be polite or to conform to bullshit societal standards—just to cut someone a break. Yeah, maybe in the long run the ugly truth is what he needs, and maybe you’re even the one to give it to him. But give the poor bastard a week off. The universe will return the favor when you next need it most.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
Your sarcasm is a veil between you and the world. It shields you from people knowing how you really feel, which is a scary prospect considering just how naked and dorky that usually is. Hey baby, it’s up to you. You can continue hanging out with people who are drawn to your guarded self, and you can keep banging helmets and psychic armor in a vain effort to get close to each other, or you can strip it all down; be a dork, be innocent, and let things get really real for the first time in a long time. PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
Your accidental help is about to expire. Maybe someone’s idiocy or inefficiency at work has been making you look good by contrast. Maybe you’ve benefited from an unspoken (false) assumption someone’s made about you. For good or ill, it’s now time to give up the crutch (that you may not have even been aware you were profiting from). The silver lining of the situation is that any residual guilt, unease, or insecurity you were experiencing because of this unasked-for aid will cease as well. Even better, in the next few weeks you’re likely to get assistance that’s dependent on conscious decision, not happy accident.
You’re downright delicious. Expect any of the shit that goes down this week to stem directly from your delirious deliciousness, and the inadequacies people can sometimes experience when in direct contact with it. What’s a sweet Fish to do? Certainly not tone down the sparkling brilliance of your scales, the vivacious complexity of your thoughts, or the mysterious passion of your hidden depths. Those would all be losing strategies. To cope with the occasional insecurities of those who love you and want you, just do the only kind thing: give them all as many tastes as they need to be convinced they deserve you.
