CONVERSATIONS WITH D.K. KODAMA

Yesterday I had the pleasure of giving Chef and Restaurateur D.K. Kodama a lift to the Kapalua West Maui Airport for his flight back to Oahu. I asked D.K. how he was doing and he said he was kind of burned out, his lates adventures is yogurt, didn't get much out of him but yogurt is what he and his investors are leaning on. So from Sushi to Steaks and Italian, and Wines. D.K. is trying to venture out in all aspects of food productions.

We talked about if he and his staff ever ventures out and checks out other new food places especially on Maui, he said that he's too busy to do that, but asked me what was happening on Maui since he's too busy doing his own thing. I mentioned that lots of people been checking out Star Noodles, and lots of people are checking out Beach Bums. He said if he's got time in the future we'll both go and eat and check out those new places.

Sansei will alway be the bread winner I personally think for D.K. it is the child he gave birth to that gets lines of people out the door in Kapalua and in Kihei. If D.K. wrote a book on how to succeed, I'd buy that anyday.
