Top Chef fan favorite and Hilo native Sheldon Simeon has a long history on the Maui culinary scene, but he didn't have a restaurant of his own until he opened the humble but playful, lunch-only Tin Roof in Kahului in 2016. In late 2018, he expanded his reach, geographically and artistically, with the dinner-only Lineage in the Shops at Wailea, paying homage to his hometown and the local tradition of family feasts. His baby is now in the hands of chefs Emmanuel Eng and Nelson Simpliaciano, who are continuing to apply creativity to family recipes and Asian American cuisine in general. Start with black sesame hummus and One-Ton chips; the latter, a local brand of cracker, also appears in a salad with ahi poke, snap peas, mixed greens and macadamia nuts. For the shared dinner plates, I'd go for the crispy noodles with mushroom gravy, or the black pepper crab fried rice. Finish with sweet potato ice cream with miso caramel and potato chips! Note: The full dinner menu is also available at the bar. Walk-ins are welcomed, but it’s best to reserve (via OpenTable) when you can.
