Hawaiian Bouillabaisse found me late — at Mama’s Fish House on Maui. A bright, island-born twist on the Provençal classic, it inspired me to recreate it in Texas using dashi, frozen seafood, and intuition. It’s a dish that connects Provence, Polynesia, and the Gulf of Mexico — a reminder that good cooking always adapts and evolves.

A bit of history about Okonomiyaki, what makes the Osaka style special, and my favorite recipe so you can enjoy it at home.
