✨ Chef Booth Announcement: Cafe Pesto Hilo ✨
We’re excited to welcome Chef Casey Halpern of Cafe Pesto to Christmas with the Chefs 2025 — bringing a dish that’s bright, bold, and beautifully rooted in Hawai‘i Island flavors.
🔥 Featured Dish: Smoked Salmon Toast with ʻŌhelo Berry Jam & Goat Cheese
Think silky, smoky salmon layered over crisp toast…
paired with the vibrant, tart sweetness of ʻōʻhelo berry jam…
and finished with creamy, tangy goat cheese that ties every flavor together.
It’s elegant. It’s festive. It’s the perfect bite for a holiday night in Keauhou — a delicious balance of savory, sweet, and island-inspired brilliance.
Join us as we celebrate culinary artistry, local flavors, and the chefs who make Hawai‘i such a special place to dine. ❤️✨
