Hiram, Jordan, BRAVO!…read more My family (8 of us, with all very different tastes) have unanimously agreed that Hiram created for us one of the greatest meals each of us have ever eaten. The food however was not the only high point - Honu Cuisine is a package. It's Hiram's incredible ability to source the best and freshest ingredients, use his customer's menu choices to perfectly match those ingredients, and create a beautiful, artistic, and incredibly tasty meal. It's also about Hiram's carefully chosen "front of house" assistant. That's right, he comes with a partner. In our case we feel very lucky and honored for that front of house to be Jordan. He is a long-time resident of the island, a fruit and vegetable farmer, and an incredibly knowledgeable foodie and Maui host. Separately Hiram and Jordan would be spectacular, together they are magical. The meal was entertaining, stimulating, and delicious. Hiram brought everything from cookware to serving dishes along with his incredible ingredients, Jordan brought fresh flowers and entertainment. This meal is worth every penny - please make the best decision you'll make while in Maui - have Hiram cook for you! Ryan & Genvieve Schmidt, the Adams and the Brewers, Aloha.

Chef Hiram and Jordan were so much fun, and the dishes were incredible: the shrimp appetizer, the risotto, the crispy skin onaga on jalapeno/pork belly slaw, the roast chicken with pine nut/caper puree and root vegetables, and the banana coconut cream pie with fresh fruit in a savory/sweet crust. All the ingredients were fresh and organic, some picked only hours earlier on the estate Jordan manages. Everything was gorgeously presented and delicious. A real treat!

I had been initially referred to Tiffany Ward through my wedding coordinator & I'm so glad I booked Tiffany. I booked them in 2016 & unfortunately had to postpone our wedding to 2019 due to health reasons & chemo treatment. Tiffany was very understanding & was so wonderful to work with. She was responsive with all my emails, texts & phone calls. She also coordinated the equipment & furniture set up so it was one less thing for me to focus on. Tiffany helped me determine how much alcohol to purchase & accomodated my guests' dietary needs (gluten & chocolate allergy). Tiffany made our wedding go so smoothly. The appetizers, drinks & the main course meals were amazing! The tri tip was medium rare (cooked to perfection) & the mahi mahi was amazingly lousy & tasty! It's so difficult to cook for large catered groups that I wasn't expecting too much. Wow, was I blown away by the food! I ate as much as I could during dinner. At the end of the evening Tiffany had kindly packed a meal for my husband & me. Once we got home around midnight, we devoured our packed meals & they were just as tasty! Tiffany catered & helped coordinate a large part of the wedding. She also set my the ceremony chairs, reception tables w/ the centerpieces, a kids corner with blankets & pillows, 2 separate lounge seating areas for the guests. She also had to coordinate where our shaved ice vendors, malasada delivery & Photobooth vendors would set it. The day went along so smoothly mainly due to Tiffany. I highly recommend Maui Catering Services!

I make homemade meals, so I know what is freshly made, not store bought. Val started with a tablecloth and flowers.

Lunch was fresh pineapple fried rice with tofu, fresh broccoli with sesame seeds and almonds and a little butter, local zucchini boats filled with seitan and mozzarella cheese on top, and roasted sweet potatoes. Hawaiian corn on the cob (non-GMO, so smaller and sweeter -- I devoured it!) was served. Dessert was local fresh fruit consisting of apple banana slices, strawberry papaya, & kumquats, mixed with grapes and strawberries and homamade banana bread. This was served with homemade sorbet and local macadamia nut ice cream. Absolutely delicious! Lunch was served quickly (15 minutes early) and the kitchen was clean when she left.

With the top down in our rented BMW, the drive to the farm was magnificent and set the perfect tone for the day. When we arrived, we were greeted at the gate by Jake, who welcomed us as we waited for the rest of the guests. Once inside the open-air kitchen, Whitney warmly introduced herself and gave us a brief overview of the schedule. Jake then shared an introduction to the land and his farming philosophy. As a former finance manager, I appreciated how clearly he understood both the economics and the regenerative methods that make the farm sustainable and healthy. We began with introductions, sharing where we were from, our names, and what we were grateful for which created an immediate sense of community. Jake then guided us on a tour of the farm, walking us through the plants and trees that would soon become our lunch. We tasted herbs, vegetables, and fruit straight from the earth. His depth of knowledge, from soil health to post-harvest practices was impressive, and he thoughtfully answered every question. After the tour, we moved into meal preparation. Family-style, we chopped, stirred, whisked, and even made our own tortillas. The fresh salsa had a wonderful bite, and preparing the vegetables and eggs ourselves made the meal even more satisfying. To top it all off, we enjoyed a homemade vegan ice cream made with fresh fruit from the farm, the perfect ending. Jake and Whitney were gracious, kind hosts who mingled easily with the group and created an environment that was both educational and welcoming. We highly recommend this class. It was not only delicious, but deeply informative and memorable.
