Jason Takemura has an understanding of classic flavors and an ability to translate their qualities into locally inspired dishes that transcend the average plate lunch or bento. His Bamboo Catering menu features everything from  Adobe Glazed Sous Vide Pork Belly, through Shiso Wrapped Shrimp and Corn Dumplings, to Sake Soy Glazed Boneless Short Ribs and Furikake Mochiko Chicken. His fish dishes ( steamed whole fish, panko crusted fish, grilled island catch with luau sauce, to name just a few) are expertly cooked and travel seamlessly whether you're ordering a casual dinner at home or planning a giant graduation party ( with COVID restrictions in mind, of course!). " After culinary school,  I worked my way down  the California Coast so i have a lot of California cuisine experience which I meld with my local knowledge... and we try to bring the two together, " he says.  The result is wonderful food, delivered by a friendly and professional staff . Perfect for a quiet night in, or a wedding or graduation party, Bamboo delivers . For catering inquiries, call David @  425 3037 .

And over in Kapolei, Jake Saito and his team are simply mad about pasta... hand made daily at the fun, fast paced Mad Bene

And finally in this episode, sommelier Christopher Lord has a passion for wine that he wants to share with anyone who'll listen.  His big  idea  is a sommeliers lounge, a   place where oenohphiles can gather,  and where those looking to learn about wine  more can take a class or two. " I fell in love with wine at a young age, " he says "  And I see a place where people can come together with a library, tasting rooms... a place to learn, to practice and to share knowledge.." We'll drink to that idea! 

Slainte!

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
