Chef Benjamin Henion

I have been in the culinary field for about 15 years now. I spent much of my time in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, creating many dishes that brought the cultures of that area to life. I have always had a passion for regional cuisine, utilizing local ingredients and using new and classic techniques to create my dishes. Being a chef on Maui is exciting because of all the beautiful ingredients that cover this beautiful Island.
