Year two of Wasabi is here! The Feature story of this issue is an exlusive interview with one of Hawaii's most prominent and influential chefs: Alan Wong. In the Interview section read about comic creator and artist Audra Ann Furuichi. Also learn about the surprisingly complex (and delicious) world of the artisan Japanese chicken known as Jidori. In Hall of Fame we honor Hilo's very own Suisan Company, Limited. And in Roots we tell the harrowing tale of brothers who found themselves on opposite sides of World War II. Of course, there's plenty more great content inside too. We hope you enjoy it!
Special thanks to Audra Ann Furuichi for the adorable cover featuring characters from her original webcomic nemu*nemu engaging in a bit of hanami (cherry blossom-viewing party).
