52 Maui's Favorite Island Directory • MauiMagazines.pub I've had a long standing love affair with Maui culture. The Hawaiian legends, as expressed in hula and chants, are absolutely mesmerizing. Did you know there are more than 30 types of hula? My favorite is the kahiko, or ancient traditional hula, where the true culture of Hawaii is reflected in dance, music and words. Be sure to check out a luau while on Maui. – Michael Moore Michael Moore has been a Maui business owner and hula enthusiast since 1987. He is co-owner of Old Lahaina Luau, one of the most popular luaus on Maui. (808) 667-6060, or online at OldLahainaLuau.com. Origins of luaus trace back to the year 1856.

Early Polynesians reached these shores by navigating the stars. As a result, Hawaii and Polynesia are deeply entwined.

The tradition dates back to the plantation days when workers from various cultures would share traditional foods with each other. Two scoops of rice, one scoop of macaroni salad, and a protein – my personal favourites are Korean Kalbi Ribs and Filipono Chicken Stew. If you love trying new food, I would highly encourage you try a Hawaiian style plate lunch while on Maui. – Tim Moore Tim Moore has been a restaurant and plate lunch authority on Maui since 1987.
