Visiting Maui

Local Top Chef alum Sheldon Simeon has opened his newest highly anticipated restaurant, Lineage, at the Shops of Wailea. The 80-seat restaurant, which opened in October, highlights local Hawaiian cuisine in a modern way. The restaurant describes Lineage as coming “from a place in the past – a place where everyone gathered around and shared together the food that was laid out in front of them – food that is from the heart and filled with memories. Dishes will pay homage to those who inspire Chef Sheldon, and will celebrate his familial roots (or Lineage), as well as the vast bounty of the islands.”

Surfers across the world eagerly await the winter months in Hawaii each year. This is when the north shores of Maui and Oahu get their biggest swells caused by ocean storms hundreds of miles away in the Pacific. With the waves come a surge of pro surfers, media and enthusiastic fans hoping to witness some of world’s biggest and best waves.

Maui’s breathtaking natural beauty, resorts, and an assortment of tourist attractions make it a must-see destination to unwind or for adventure. There is so much to explore and enjoy in Maui that one trip is not enough, but it’s a start.
