TGIFRIDAY | MAY 24, 2013 | 3

Kaua‘i funk-rock-jazz band Applesauce performs at 9:30 p.m. tonight at Backyards Bar and Grill in Kapa‘a. Admission is free.

Cameron Cox, lead singer and saxophonist of Kaua‘i’s own Applesauce,

said he and his group strive to “keep the dance � oor go-ing and keep people’s ears perked up.” So far, this high-energy quintet of musicians has had no trouble turning heads, delivering a progressive sound infused with funk and rock.

“We just really clicked right away,” Cox said. “Since then it’s just been like an endless stream of writing and performing.”

Earlier this month, in front of a jam-packed Trees Lounge in Kapa‘a, Apple-sauce unveiled its � rst EP during the “Sauce EP Release Party.” Today, they’re gearing up to record their � rst full-length album in July.

If you haven’t had a chance to catch them live, Applesauce performs tonight at 9:30 p.m. at Back-yards Bar and Grill in Kapa‘a.

Bassist-producer Paul Cline — who is also the CEO and founder of UnKnown En-deavors (U.K.E.) — described Applesauce as “a rock-funk band with an eye toward classic rock sensibilities.”

“Musicianship is para-mount and we inspire to

always put on a quality show,” he said.

Cox added that the group also dabbles in hip-hop, jazz and electronica. The hand-ful of cover songs they do perform, Applesauce makes them their own.

In 2008, Cox, guitarist Rory Marsh and drummer Chris “Hamster” White-Root moved from Kaua‘i to Se-attle to pursue their love of music. To make a long story short, Cox said the three of them ended up “getting over the city, and mostly the cold.”

They moved back to Kaua‘i, where they joined forces with Cline and per-cussionist Dan Muench to form Applesauce.

“We’ve just been gelling as guys,” Cox said. “It’s really

nice to be in a band with like-minded people.”

Cline said everyone brings something unique to the table, which has allowed the group to do everything on their own, from production to designing all of their own posters, merchandise and stickers.

“We want to be in-house, and I think that’s kind of the way of the future,” Cline said.

For now, Applesauce is focused on entrenching itself in the Hawai‘i music scene. But the long-term goal is to take their sound to the Mainland.

“We want to be profes-sional musicians and make a living doing this thing,” said Cox, adding that the motiva-tion and talent is there to make it happen.

First and foremost, Cox said he and his bandmates are lovers of music. If they can reach one person out of a million, Cox said he would be a happy guy.

“Our basic collective trip is to try to spread some

love that we get from music — or positivity or inspira-tion,” he said.

Cline said Applesauce of-fers something completely unique for Kaua‘i and the response so far has been incredibly positive.

“I think the band really resonates with people.”

Applesauce performs tonight at Backyards and June 28 at Trees Lounge.

ALDEN ALAYVILLA SPECIAL TO TGI FRIDAY

RED SALTRed Salt, located in Ko‘a Kea Hotel and Resort at 2251 Po‘ipu Road, is open for breakfast from 6:30 to 11 a.m. and dinner from 6 to 9 p.m.

4 | TGIFRIDAY | MAY 24, 2013

The inside of Red Salt is a sight to behold; contemporary architecture with minimalist

qualities. I did not feel con� ned at all — plenty of open space to wine, dine or catch a game at the bar and sushi area.

At the bar and sushi area I met Bartender Michael Berthiaume and Sushi Chef Justin Lopes. Berthiaume spoke brie� y about Red Salt’s history as well as its cuisine.

“We opened in April 2009 — same as the hotel from when it was the Po‘ipu Beach Hotel,” Berthiaume said. “The menu changes depending on what we get in, but we focus on fresh, local � sh. Chef Adam tries to get as much local things as possible.”

After Berthiaume spoke about the cuisine, I was introduced to Sushi Chef Justin Lopes. Lopes has been making sushi for eight years. He trained for two years on the Big Island under

Sushi Chef Toshi Kazu.“(Training) was super traditional

and old-school Japanese,” Lopes said. “He was very strict and it was a very good experience.”

Lopes prepared Red Salt’s Sashimi Sampler, $32. The sampler consists of ahi sashimi with a green apple and cilantro salad; salmon sashimi with cilantro, cherry tomatoes and black bean chili sauce; and hamachi sashimi with sliced jalapenos, fried shiitake mushrooms and fresh chiso.

Lopes said he prepares sushi the way he wants to eat: “I love traditional sushi, but the way I like to eat it is with something that’s sweet and sour, a little bit of crunch — all textures and � avors. I like it fresh, easy to make.”

Lopes added that � sh prepared daily at Red Salt is fresh and local. “We use fresh, island � sh from � sh purveyors,” Lopes sad. “We get it in

today for today. There’s no second or third day (use of the � sh).”

The sushi Lopes prepared was exceptional -— many � avors and textures — exactly how he described earlier. Each bite left a lasting impression. It was some of the best sashimi I’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting, especially since I’m a sucker for salmon and ahi.

After sampling the sashimi, I met with Executive Chef Adam Watten. Watten has been with Red Salt since its opening and has been its executive chef for a year. He attended New England Culinary Institute in Vermont and various apprenticeships throughout the United States. Watten primarily came to Kaua‘i to open Red Salt, but his a� nity for the island also drew him in.

Watten prepared Red Salt’s signature dish: The Madagascar Vanilla Bean Seared Mahi, $33. “This is a real simple dish on some tropical � avors,” Wat-ten said.

“There’s mango in the

vinaigrette, coconut in the rice, avocado in the mahi and we base the mahi with but-ter and vanilla. So it’s a very simple dish, � avor wise. The combination of those � avors work really well.”

The dish was onolicious

— superb taste and cooked to perfection. The sweet, tropical � avors of this dish, combined with the fresh mahi, is a must for any patron.

today for today. There’s no

TGIFRIDAY | MAY 24, 2013 | 5

Red Salt’s signature dish, the Madagascar Vanilla Bean Seared Mahi, is priced at $32 and is a treasure chest of island and sweet � avors.

There’s a bit of a problem when you’re trying to decide what to drink

at Red Salt. Do you want the Blueberry Acai, Red Coral or Wipeout? Before you scream in frustration, calm down, take a deep breath and listen to reason: Sample all three martinis.

Martini FlightThe Martini Flight, $16,

consists of three of Red Salt’s signature cocktails — the Blueberry Acai, Red Coral and Wipeout.

Bartender Michael Ber-thiaume, who has been on Kaua’i for four years, mixed the Martini Flight light-ning quick and described the ingredients of each sample.

“The Blueberry Acai is made from an organic vodka called Van Gough. It’s naturally infused with

blueberry and acai. We also add housemade lemonade and garnish it (martini) with fresh blue-berries.”

The Wipeout is made with Finlandia Mango Vod-ka mixed with pineapple, mango and passion fruit.

The Red Coral consists of Stoli Vanilla Vodka, Stoli Raspberry Vodka, a splash of Grenadine and pome-granate juice.

The Martini Flight is per-fect for � rst-time patrons who want to get a feel for the onolicous cock-tails Red Salt o� ers. Each sample o� ers everything you want in a sample — variety, quality and presentation.

Remember the selec-tion of drinks I mentioned earlier? Well, Berthiaume said Red Salt has a wide selection.

REVIEW

ASSOCIATED PRESSJOCELYN NOVECK

6 | TGIFRIDAY | MAY 24, 2013

Ever wonder what it would feel like to suddenly wake up in another universe?

You could � nd out, perhaps, by joining the next space mission to another galaxy, or, slightly easier, you could go to your local multiplex and watch “Fast & Furious 6” without having seen the � rst � ve movies.

Should you decide to un-dertake this anthropological

experiment, you’d immediately discover there are things every-one except you already knows. For example: jokes about baby oil and big foreheads are very funny in this universe. Cars, of course, are the most important thing, and of course there are no speed limits. Weapons come next on the list, and the bigger the better — but in one-on-one physical combat, bald heads are

surprisingly e� ective. Speaking of those � ghts: They’re brutal, yet somehow, no organs get damaged and even bruises are minimal.

And oh yes, bikinis and bottoms are important. Not bikini bottoms — well, those too — but bottoms in bikinis. What this has to do with car racing is not entirely clear.

Most importantly, in this

universe, there is no such thing as “less is more.” More is always more, and so, “Fast & Furious 6” will delight fans of the franchise, because there is more of everything here. Director Justin Lin gives us not only great cars doing ridiculous things at ridiculous speeds, but also a huge army tank and a great stunt involving a giant cargo plane.

Newcomers will be a little confused as to who everyone is, since there is little explanation at this point, but fans will be glad to know their favorites are back, starting with Vin Diesel’s Dom, the hotshot driver with the clean-shaven head (the better to butt other heads with) and a strong sense of family. When we � rst see him, he’s careening down a winding cli� road in the Canary Islands with cohort/former cop Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker). Turns out they’re heading to the hospital, where O’Conner’s wife (and Dom’s sister), Mia (Jordana Brewster, in a small role this time) is giving birth. A sweet family moment.

Meanwhile, Dom, on the lam from the U.S. and hugely wealthy from his last venture, is shacked up in a sunny love nest with a gorgeous Brazil-ian cop (Elsa Pataky). Who needs to work? That’s what he tells Hobbs, the insanely bu� federal agent played by Dwayne Johnson, when he comes calling, a nemesis from the last � lm who’s now promis-ing immunity in exchange for Dom’s help. He wants Dom to nab a villain named Shaw (Luke Evans) — he’s the snarly guy with the tank and the plane and

a huge military arsenal which is one little component short of wreaking total havoc.

A reluctant Dom gets on board when he learns that Letty, his former love (Michelle Rodriguez) is working for Shaw. But wait ... wasn’t she dead? Well, actually she’s alive, but she has amnesia. Anyway, the game is on.

Happily, amid all the noise, the races — there’s a terri� c one through the streets of down-town London — the crashes and the outlandish stunts, there is some humor, and it’s very welcome. Particularly funny are Tyrese Gibson as Roman and Chris “Ludacris” Bridges as Tej, Dom’s partners in crime. Also back for more adventures are the attractive duo of Han (Sung Kang) and Gisele (Gal Gadot); Gina Carano is a newcomer as an agent whose � ghting skills give Letty a run for her money.

Not everyone gets out alive. As for the lucrative franchise, though, it’s more than alive and kicking, judging from the new � lm’s overseas success. A post-credits sequence teases the upcoming seventh � lm. In the “Fast & Furious” universe, it’s not just international criminals who rake it in.

For more than a decade, the Kaua‘i Polynesian Festival has paid tribute to the

indigenous island cultures of the southern Paci� c.

This year’s fun continues through Sunday at Vidinha Stadium in Lihu‘e.

“We’re in our 12th year,” Festival Director Kapu Kini-maka-Alquiza said. “People can expect to have a great weekend.”

Presented by the Kamana-wa Foundation, the 2013 Kaua‘i Polynesian Festival kicks o� at noon today and features Tahitian, Maori, Samoan and Hawaiian en-tertainment, Polynesian arts and crafts, solo and group dance competitions, food booths, workshops, a farmers market, Hawaiian games and much more for the entire family.

There will be about 30 arts and craft vendors and � ve food booths on site to choose from.

One of the most popular festival events is the “Polyne-sian Experience,” a hands-on cultural craft and dance activity beginning at noon

today and Saturday.Learn � re-making, spear-

throwing, how to husk a coconut and weaving tech-niques using the fronds of the coconut and hala tree, ac-cording to the event website. Professionals will also teach participants how to dance the hula, make a ti-leaf lei and tie a pareau — or sarong — in the Polynesian style.

“The Polynesian Experi-ence is one of the things that people should attend if they haven’t been to the fes-tival,” Kinimaka-Alquiza said.

Additional events include a trio of performances by O‘ahu contemporary group FAB 4, Maori action and poi ball dances of Aotearoa, a Ta-hitian dance exhibition and � re dance competitions.

Kinimaka-Alquiza said incorporating the di� erent Polynesian cultures into one weekend-long event was a “brainstorming idea” of a small festival committee back in 2000.

“It’s been very successful,” she said.

The Polynesian Festival runs from 11:30 a.m. to 9

p.m. today, 11:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Saturday and 11:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.

Tickets are $10 per day or $25 for a 3-day pass. Dance participants and children under age 5 are admitted for free. Workshops cost $25 each.

Tickets can be purchased online, at the door or at select island retailers, including Deli and Bread, Progressive Expressions, Scotty’s Music, Western Mo-tors, Aloha Rainbow Screen-ing, Larry’s Music, Hula Girl Restaurant, Eggberts and Hanalei Surf Co.

Established in 1994, the Kamanawa Foundation is a Kaua‘i-based nonprofit organization with the mis-sion of preserving, promot-ing and perpetuating the native Hawaiian culture, including the language, social values, arts, crafts and music, according to its website.

For more information about the festival and a complete schedule of events check out www.kauaipolynesianfestival.org.

The 12th Annual Kaua‘i Polynesian Festival runs today through Sunday at Vidinha Stadium in Lihu‘e and features a variety of entertainment, Polynesian arts and crafts, solo and group dance competitions, food booths and work-shops. Tickets cost $10 per day, $25 for a weekend pass.

DARIN MORIKITGI FRIDAY

The sights and smells of cut �owers and plants were not hard to �nd last weekend at the Kaua‘i Museum,

where about 30 community members and visitors attended a talk story session with local haku lei maker Elvrine Chow.

During the question and answer session, Chow spoke about her love for di�erent types of leis and how she was �rst introduced to the art nearly three decades ago.

She also shared tips on a wide variety of topics during her nearly one-hour talk, ranging from plant and �ower gathering to traditional cultural practices.

The museum then hosted a interac-tive demonstration following the talk in which attendees were given a chance to make their very own haku — a crown-like lei that is worn around a person’s head — using �oral and plant elements hand-picked by Chow.

The event, which facilitated by “Kaua‘i Stories” author Pamela Varma Brown, is a part of the museum’s ongoing Author Series that is highlighting talented local writers.

The next talk story session hosted by Brown will be held June 1 at the Kaua‘i Museum with Kumu Hula Leina‘ala Pavao Jardin, who will talk about her journey as a hula instructor followed by a brief performance by some of her students.

Chow, who can be found on most Saturdays at the Kaua‘i Community Col-lege Farmers Market, can be reached at 634-9999 or [email protected]. Kim Chow of Puhi, left, and Jordann Bowler of Reno, right. Doug Ross of Wailua.
