Jerry Douglas.

Garden party

NTBG celebrates 50 years with concert featuring Jerry Douglas, Hawaiian Legends

CHRIS D’ANGELO TGIFR!DAY

he last time 13-time Grammy Award winning musician Jerry Douglas was in Hawaii was a few years ago, when he and his wife took an anniversary trip to the Four Seasons resort on Maui. “Oh, man,” he said. “The scratch marks are still in the marble from when they had to drag me out of there. I didn’t want to leave.” Fortunately for him — and certainly for Kauai — Douglas is back on the islands for a trio of performances, including one Saturday on Kauai during the National Tropical Botanical Garden’s 50th anniversary celebration. The last time Douglas performed on Kauai was around 2000, when he and singer-songwriter Alison Krauss played at a private party. While here, Douglas remembers tallying a significant number of bogeys at the Poipu Bay Golf Course, just a few days before Tiger Woods flew in for a tournament. “We hacked it up and put divots in it and everything,” he laughed, speaking by phone from Nashville. “We’ll give you something for your ball to land in.” Although he won’t have time to hit the links this time around, Douglas is thrilled to be coming back to Kauai, and to be performing alongside a frenzy of local legends, including his good friend Ledward Kaapana.

“I’m really looking forward to it,” he said of the show. “Everyone loves the chance to go play music to paradise. This is as close as it gets. I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time.” “Musical Legends in the Garden” will also include performances by the Hawaiian Legends (Kaapana, Mike Kaawa and Nathan Aweau), The Nathan Aweau, Jeff Peterson and Benny Chong Trio and Kauai’s own The Hanalei Bay Trio, featuring Ken Emerson, Pancho Graham and Kirby Keough. Dennis Kamakahi was scheduled to appear with the Hawaiian Legends, but is unable due to health concerns. Ken Levine, owner of Kuleana Music in Kalaheo, said the lineup features musicians he has been working to bring together for almost five years. “All these musicians recognized their musical gift early in their lives and have grown that gift until they have the capacity to give extreme joy and pleasure to so many,” he said. “This is the commonality of the group we have brought together for this celebration of NTBG’s 50th anniversary.” Douglas said his goal for Saturday is simple — make the show as fun as possible, because if he and the other performers aren’t having fun, the audience won’t either. This one-of-a-kind, rain or shine concert celebration is from 1 to 5 p.m. in the beautiful open-air setting of NTBG’s Southshore Visitors Center in Poipu. Gates opening at 11:30 a.m. and food and beverages will be available for purchase. General admission tickets cost $45. Information: www.ntbg.org, 742-2433.

Shivalik

reopens under new management VIVIANE GILBERT STEIN SPECIAL TO TGIFR!DAY

auai, get ready for a new plate lunch — south Indian style. It’s called thali, and it’s the new lunch special at Shivalik Indian Cuisine. The Waipouli restaurant reopened Friday under new management, after being closed for four days for renovation. Sam Sudhakaran will be leading a completely new crew, including a new curry chef, tandoor chef and two prep chefs. In addition to the traditionally prepared Indian food that has been served at Shivalik since 2010, Sudhakaran is looking forward to introducing some new things. Such as thali. Shivalik’s new menu describes thali as “a traditional Indian take on the classic plate lunch.” Each lunch includes certain dishes: a main entree, basmati rice, yellow dal, vegetable curry, achar (Indian pickle), naan (flatbread) and salad. Diners will get to choose their own entree, and — perhaps more importantly — their desired level of heat.

That makes thali better than the lunch buffet formerly offered at Shivalik, said Sudhakaran. On a buffet line, all the dishes have to be prepared with the same amount of spiciness. But some diners want searing heat while others prefer milder meals. This way, diners can get exactly the level of spices they prefer. “Some customers need spicy,” he said. So when they order the thali, “I can add it.” The lunch special features eight vegetarian entrees, ranging from dal makhani and chana masala, to saag paneer and eggplant. The non-vegetarian choices are chicken, lamb or shrimp curry, and chicken tika masala (All the vegetarian entrees are $9.99, while the meat dishes are a few dollars more). Sudhakaran served me a preview of the thali a week before the reopening. A large tray was loaded with chicken tika masala, mixed vegetable curry, palak paneer and yellow dal. A heaping serving of basmati rice and fresh salad rounded out the

It was all delicious, especially the palak paneer. A thick curry sauce made from a dense and flavorful spinach puree, it was dotted with cubes of potatoes and paneer, a fresh Indian cheese made at Shivalik. The chicken tika masala featured large chunks of boneless chicken that had been marinated, then grilled in the tandoor, or traditional clay oven, and finally sautéed in a savory tomato sauce. The vegetable curry and dal were also very tasty. But honestly, for this naan fan, the most enjoyable part of the whole meal was the chance to indulge in lots of fresh flatbread made by an expert. Shivalik’s naan was perfect: slightly crispy and slightly chewy, perfect for dipping into the sauces and scooping up dal. Intrigued by the other varieties I spotted on the dinner menu, I went back later to try two: the lassan naan, studded with freshly chopped garlic and cilantro ($3.75); and paneer kulcha, stuffed with spiced Indian cheese ($4.50). The Peshawari naan (stuffed with finely ground nuts and raisins) will have to wait for another visit. The naan is prepared on Shivalik’s clay tandoor oven which uses charcoal, not gas. That

Shivalik’s mango lassi VIVIANE GILBERT STEIN SPECIAL TO TGIFR!DAY

M Sam Sudhakaran, manager at Shivalik Indian Cuisine. gives the food a natural flavor, explained Sudhakaran. Another unique food that requires special equipment will be added to the menu soon. Sudhakaran plans to introduce dosa, a “very special, traditional south Indian dish.” The thin pancake can only be made by a very experienced person using a special grill. Sudhakaran plans to begin offering very healthy food, which is “very popular everywhere on the Mainland,” soon. Slight changes may be made to the dinner menu, but traditional favorites will be retained, with the addition of popular south Indian dishes, Sudhakaran said. The biggest change will be the switch from the lunch buffet to thali style lunches, but a dinner buffet will still be available from 5 to 9:30

p.m. Wednesdays because the owners know how much Kauai diners love buffets. Sudhakaran, who is also a chef, brings 30 years of restaurant experience to his new role as manager. He sounded excited about the challenge. “It’s good,” he said, looking around Shivalik. “It’s good.” Shivalik Indian Cuisine is located at 4-771 Kuhio Highway, Kapaa, near Foodland in the Waipouli Shopping Center. Lunch is served from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., and dinner is served from 5 to 9:30 p.m. The restaurant is closed on Tuesdays. Shivalik offers a kamaaina discount of 10 percent, although that does not apply to the lunch special. For more information, call 821-2333 or go to shivalikindiancuisine.com.

mmm, mango lassi. The mango lassi at Shivalik Indian Cuisine is a drink so decadent, you’d think it should be bad for you. But it actually could be considered a health drink — depending on how strict you are about such definitions, of course. Made with mango and homemade natural yogurt, Shivalik’s mango lassi was extremely thick and dense with flavor. The sweetness of the mango blended beautifully with the tangy taste of natural yogurt. Shivalik’s uses imported Alphonso mangoes in its drinks. The Alphonso mango, grown mainly in western India, is known for its sweetness, richness and flavor. Those qualities were certainly showcased in this drink. Smooth and sweet, it was almost like drinking a dessert. Just a healthy one. The mango lassi at Shivalik Indian Cuisine is $3.95. Shivalik also offers a plain lassi and masala chai.

The restaurant, located in the Waipouli Shopping Center in Kapaa, also serves beer and wine. Several Indian beers are featured, including Maharaja Premium India Pilsner, Flying Horse Royal Lager and Taj Mahal Premium Lager.

REVIEW ASSOCIATED PRESS JAKE COYLE

‘Captain America’ zippy but hollow

or the latest Marvel release, “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” most fan boys might prefer a Consumer Reports-style product review. New character introductions: Smooth. Action sequences: Excellent if sometimes lacking finesse. Viewer satisfaction: Likely high. Box-office prospects: Bankable. Teasers for future Marvel installments: Yes, two. With slick design and plushy interiors, “The Winter Soldier” is an excellent product. But is it a good movie? Are the two indistinguishable at this point? Like the recent “Thor: The Dark World,” “Winter Soldier” is a sequel to a pre-“Avengers” franchise starter. The earlier “Captain America: First Avenger” was a mostly clever

period film, set in the ‘40s and awash with a charming WWII thriller nostalgia. “Winter Soldier” brings Steve Rogers — the weakling recruit made a brawny Greatest Generation icon, played by Chris Evans — up to present day for a Washington D.C. conspiracy thriller. Fittingly, Marvel has attracted the default hero of such films, Robert Redford. He’s a major get for the franchise, especially since (unlike in last year’s “All is Lost”) he’s actually talking now. While Rogers runs laps around the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and jots notes on the pop culture he missed while frozen for 70 years, there’s trouble brewing at S.H.I.E.L.D. Its head, Nick Fury (Samuel Jackson), believes something is amiss with the agency’s latest

project: a trio of “helicarriers” that can kill evildoers from the sky even before the evil is done. It’s in this way that Marvel films use a complicated current-events issue — NSA-like spying — to feign contemporary relevance. It’s the appearance of having something to say. Captain America, a stand-in for a more innocent, noble America, wonders if the helicarriers are like “holding a gun to everyone on Earth and calling it protection.” But that’s about the extent of such talk in “Winter Soldier”: a political thriller without the politics. (Be warned: some small spoilers follow.) Fury, having doubted the project, finds himself a hunted man. Captain America is left to investigate with only a few

trustworthy friends: Scarlett Johansson’s scarlet-haired former KGB agent Natasha Romanoff, a.k.a. the Black Widow (an “Avengers” toss-in, added like a dash of paprika) and Anthony Mackie’s veteran Sam Wilson (a welcome newbie). The best thing “Winter Soldier” has going for it is its cast, a uniformly likable bunch, particularly the winning Mackie, whose character dons mechanical wings to become the Falcon. And then there’s Redford, who plays Alexander Pierce, a S.H.I.E.L.D. director. Redford, naturally, classes up the joint. Historically, in films like “Three Days of the Condor” and “All the President’s Men,” he’s been the regular guy fighting government conspiracy — which makes his duplicitous turn in “Winter Soldier” exciting. Like

Jackson, he lends a gravitas to the film that it perhaps doesn’t quite deserve. Directing brothers Anthony Russo and Joe Russo (“You, Me and Dupree”) and screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely (”Thor: The Dark World”) put perhaps a bit more into character development than these films often do. (The biggest misstep is with the handling of the title character, an assassin played by Sebastian Stan, whose true identity is mysterious.) The brightly lit D.C. environs, too, give the film something of a sense of the real world. Yet when Marvin Gaye’s “Trouble Man” plays — pop-culture homework for Rogers — it’s like a window into another, wholly separate universe. One with soul.

It’s getting difficult to tell the Marvel movies apart. The fight scenes on a departing aircraft blur together. The reversals of friend and foe refract like an infinity mirror. The characters are spread across so many movies that you’d need a detective’s cork board to keep it straight. So while “The Winter Soldier” succeeds as finely engineered merchandise built to be crowdpleasing entertainment, for moviegoers and shareholder alike, it has a shelf life that won’t last much past its running time. “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” a Walt Disney release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for “intense sequences of violence, gunplay and action throughout.”

‘Seussical’ will deliver laughs, along with messages of love LISA ANN CAPOZZI TGIFR!DAY

onths of after-school rehearsals with singing, dancing, laughing and learning will come to a head this weekend for high school drama students when they take the stage at the Kauai War Memorial Convention Hall. A cast of 28 thespians from the three Kauai high schools have been rehearsing for the production of “Seussical” with the Kauai Performing Arts Center. For two weekends, the actors will put on the musical comedy based on the works of Dr.

Seuss. The fast-moving and colorful show is directed by Steven Carrasco and choreographed by Sarah D. Carrasco. “It’s really 15 Dr. Seuss books rolled all together into one play. It’s magical,” said Carrasco, while taking a break from one of the 5-day-a-week rehearsals. With what Carrasco calls cool messages about love, bullying, self-esteem, isolation and judging others by what’s on the inside, the play touches on subjects that cross all age groups. Junior MeKenna Pascua said when she was in elementary school she would visit the library and read Dr.

Seuss books whenever she got bored. Now the 16-year-old is playing one of the lead roles, Gertrude McFuzz, a quirky, awkward self-conscious bird with only one feather for a tale. She tries to get Horton, the Elephant, to notice her. “It’s nostalgic being a Dr. Seuss character and portraying his message that you don’t have to be fancy,” said Pascua. “It’s more important how you treat people.” Watch for the surprise when Pascua has to perform some costume trickery

with a 20-foot tail in an attempt to transform McFuzz. Carrasco brings an array of vast acting experience to his directing. He said his role as Adolfo in the national touring production of “The Drowsy Chaperone” was a big influence because Adolfo is a larger than life character, like many of the Seussical characters. “I used a similar vaudeville style with the students and I also had them strike poses like superheroes would,” he said. Shows times are 7 p.m. at the Kauai

War Memorial Convention Hall on Fridays and Saturdays and 4 p.m. on Sundays and will run today though Sunday and April 11-13. Tickets are $10 in advance for adults and $12 at the door. Student prices are $8 in advance and $10 at the door. Tickets are available from cast members and ticket outlets around the island including North Shore Pharmacy, Kilauea; Jim Saylor jewelry, Kapaa; Vim ‘N Vigor, Lihue; Scotty’s Music, Kalaheo and Wong’s Restaurant, Hanapepe.
