Sam Choy's Taste of the Islands debuts Sunday on Oʻahu

Aug 21, 2026

A new Hawaii food and travel series starts this Sunday, good news for local restaurants and the small businesses it puts on camera.

  • The spinoff visits local eateries, food trucks, distilleries, and island activities across the state.
  • It focuses on family-run places and chefs who buy from local farmers and fishers.
  • Separate editions cover Oʻahu, Maui, Kauaʻi, and Kona/Hilo, with two stops per episode.
  • It replaces Sam Choy's in the Kitchen for a four-week limited run, airing Sundays at 6:30 on KHON.

Outlook: If the limited run does well, it could return as a regular series.
