Renowned island chef Sam Choy will bring his popular style of cooking and infectious personality to this summer’s Hawaii on the Hill in Washington D.C. Chef Choy becomes the latest local celebrity to participate in Senator Hirono and the Chamber Commerce Hawaii’s showcase event, joining Willie K, Amy Hanaialii, and Aiden James.
“Sam Choy is a pioneer of Pacific Rim cuisine, and I’m excited to have him as part of our third annual Hawaii on the Hill hosted in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce Hawaii, said Senator Hirono, a partner of the event.
“It was an honor for me to get a direct invite from the senator to attend this event,” said Choy. “My cell phone rang and it was Mazie Hirono on the other line…wow!” he exclaimed. “I am so pleased to see that Poke, a true Hawaiian food, is making its way to the mainland in a big way,” he added.
A star wherever he goes, it’ll be an exciting time on June 7-8 when Sam Choy shares our island culture on the Hill through his Pacific Rim cuisine and entertaining storytelling.
