Welcome to Hoʻomaʻa Iʻa
Hoʻomaʻa Iʻa means becoming familiar with, or reconnected to
Hawaiian seafood.
This one-of-a-kind culinary experience will introduce you to an extraordinary selection of locally sourced seafood creations prepared by our talented Kanaka Culinary Arts ʻiʻimi (seekers of knowledge) under the mentorship of renowned Chef Kealoha Domingo.
Mahalo piha for investing in the next generation of Hawaiian chefs, cultural practitioners, and community leaders, by donating to EA Ecoversityʻs Kanaka Culinary Program and joining a movement that nourishes more than the body—it nourishes identity, kuleana, and the future of our lāhui.
