The Aloha Bakery

With 2 Michelin stars under his wing and a restaurant that is the toast of New York high society, one could be forgiven for assuming that Simon Aubrey was on his path to becoming the next Heston Blumenthal or Gordon Ramsay. Unfortunately for him, the terrible combination of a visit by the Mayor of New York and the accidental purchase of some day-old razor clams by his sous-chef has led to his flagship restaurant, “Simon the Fisherman”, to be closed by the FDA and with that the end of his dreams of becoming America’s favourite British chef.

Struggling with depression due to the closure of his restaurant and the subsequent media backlash, Ben Kekoa, Simon’s best friend and attorney, has offered Simon the use of his luxury apartment in Waikiki, Honolulu. In Hawaii Simon befriends local Hawaiians who teach him important life lessons and change his attitude about life.
