Maui Pizza with Chef Jeff Scheer of Restaurant Marlow
Welcome back to Pizza Quest!
There’s something special happening in Pukalani, on the island of Maui, where Chef Jeff Scheer and his wife Kaili (along with their trusted friend and restaurant anchor, Chef Chris), are drawing big crowds and James Beard Award attention at their non-touristy, upcountry restaurant, Marlow. It starts with fabulous wood-fired sourdough pizzas (both traditional and inventive) but also, drawing on Jeff’s background as a fine dining chef, includes duck confit, a must-have octopus’ salad, handmade pasta dishes and gnocchi, rotating seasonal, locally grown specials, and uniquely flavored gelatos. In a sense, Marlow is at the heart of an ever-growing Maui community of locals as well as “pilgrims” who have made the trek. For anyone thinking of heading to Hawaii, you will not want to miss the Marlow experience. Otherwise, join us here for a vicarious immersion into the world of Chef Jeff Scheer and Restaurant Marlow, and then imagine yourself there.
