It was beautiful.” amayers@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Aviva Mayers) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.hawaiianstylemagazine.com/article/articles/241/1/Kitchen-of-the-Quarter/Page1.html Above Kailua – Kona sits a tropical oasis with sweeping ocean views, lush foliage, and an infinity pool complete with fish pond and babbling brook. The home encompasses this inner sanctuary with every room opening up to the outdoors and the majestic Pacific. info@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Marcus Webb) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.hawaiianstylemagazine.com/article/articles/239/1/Big-Rock/Page1.html Hawai‘i’s epic landscapes are stories embedded in rock. Sometimes the story is told implicitly, in the massive emerald cliffs buckled with time. In other places the story is told explicitly, in the form of prehistoric petroglyphs. Big Rock Manufacturing Inc. of Honolulu lets homeowners take these stories into their own backyards. This highly creative company is the place where nature's magnificence meets with manmade masonry, offering landscaping solutions that complement the distinctive aesthetics of the Islands. test@example.com (Carlie Singh Partridge) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.hawaiianstylemagazine.com/article/articles/238/1/Peter-Lik/Page1.html “I have stood in awe of sculptured landscapes touched by the emerging light of dawn, the day's last rays and the haunting glow of moonlight,” says fine art photographer Peter Lik. “My passion for photography is fulfilled by my search for the spirited heartland of Mother Earth.” info@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Douglas King) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.hawaiianstylemagazine.com/article/articles/237/1/Ilima-Sida-fallax/Page1.html Its flowers shine like points of pure sunlight in the dry forest, or like golden coins scattered over bleak lava flatlands. ‘Ilima is so common in Hawai‘i, clinging to life with a weedy enthusiasm in arid, wind-whipped nooks and crannies, that one is tempted to take the sight for granted. And yet this indigenous shrub provides one of the great traditional lei flowers. It is celebrated in many songs. It is the official island flower of O‘ahu. In every Island-loving heart it represents the subtle beauty of the Hawaiian wilderness. info@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Paul Wood) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.hawaiianstylemagazine.com/article/articles/236/1/Lighting-Up-Your-Life/Page1.html Doreen Nagano holds up an 18-by-24 inch stained glass window panel she calls The Tropical Garden. Sunlight ignites the oranges, greens, reds and yellows of the heliconias, birds of paradise, and ti leaves in the lush, lovely vignette. It took a month for the self-taught artist to create the piece from 203 pieces of hand-cut glass. So fine is her craftsmanship, it mirrors the magnificence of nature. info@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Cheryl Tsutsumi) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.hawaiianstylemagazine.com/article/articles/235/1/Kau-the-Last-Frontier/Page1.html I recently explored Ka’u, the southernmost district of Hawai‘I’s Big Island, and found unexpected culinary treasures and friendly people who cherish their remote location. Areas of Ka‘ū are lush and green and then you have the Ka‘ū Desert just around the corner. It’s an incredible juxtaposition of climates. Ka‘ū is a hidden gem of unspoiled beauty, rich agriculture, sustainable cattle ranches and fishing. I was moved by the story shared by three dedicated Ka‘ū residents. info@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Olelo pa'a Faith Ogawa) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.hawaiianstylemagazine.com/article/articles/234/1/Roys/Page1.html As if crafting a delicious reduction sauce, chef Roy Yamaguchi has deftly distilled the diverse flavors of Hawai‘i into pure culinary delight. At 37 popular restaurants that bear his name in Hawai‘i, Japan, Guam and on the U.S. mainland, guests are treated to everything from Island-inspired sushi to tropical salads to signature entrees like roasted macadamia nut crusted mahi mahi and a mouthwatering molten lava chocolate soufflé. Each concoction conveys a taste of Hawai‘i, infused with the unmistakable taste of its creator. info@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Mark E. Ward) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.hawaiianstylemagazine.com/article/articles/233/1/Haliimaile-General-Store/Page1.html Twelve hundred feet up the slopes of Maui’s Mount Haleakalä is the unpretentious source for one of Hawai‘i’s most surprising and honored culinary delights. Twenty years after its founding, even the name, Hail‘imaile General Store, belies the trappings of this celebrated Upcountry eatery and the gal who cooked it up. With its 1920s plantation styling and wide-porch-welcome, the venue might evoke the hospitality of the Old South… were it not for those nearby fields of fragrant pineapple and sugarcane. info@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Mark E.

Happily, not all such adventures require a backpack and compass. If you like to do your adventuring by auto, one excellent place to begin is the Mänoa Valley on the island of O‘ahu. info@hawaiianstylemagazine.com (Douglas King) Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0400
