Neal Patel , an old time friend , has ask me 10 Years ago , what I think of him opening a Restaurant ? At that time , I was an Executive Chef at Royal Lahaina Hotel . Skeptically I have told him ,"Opening a Restaurant is a hard work and lots of risk . But what he had never told me , that he loves to open a Little Indian Restaurant. Indian Food is not at all on this little island on Maui . I remember cooking lots of Chicken Curry for Arab Clients at the Grand Wailea or Hilton in Munich was a delight full taste of many spices and ingredients.
Last week , I was visiting Neal at his first Restaurant , after our discussion 10 years ago and , I could not believe how well prepared all his food has been.
In his Flyer he mentioned : Maui Masala is s vision of two Indian families who have lived on Maui for more than a decade . They were attracted to Maui's lush tropical climate. it remided them of India , they loved the wonderful community and fmiliare fragrnace of plumeria and jasmine. However , one thing was missing from this island paradise " the Masala" , the savory and delectable tastes of Indian cuisine , Why not bring the flavors they love to the place they love for both locals and visitors to enjoy ?
And so , " Maui Masala " was born
Enjoy a little bit of spice in our island paradise !
