In the mid 90’s a native Hawaiian by the name of Kekoa opened a Hawaiian restaurant in Oregon. He moved there from the Big Island of Hawaii and brought his own family recipes with him. The restaurant offered traditional Hawaiian Plate Lunch, which has a long history of being a regional favorite throughout Hawaii. The Hawaiian Plate Lunch concept was relatively new to Oregon at the time and quickly became a local favorite, including that of brothers Cameron and Tyler McNie. The McNie brothers were faithful customers of Kekoa’s restaurant, and were greatly disappointed in 2003 when they learned that the restaurant was closing. That same year, Cameron and Tyler helped their family open a small restaurant that offered the same Hawaiian Plate Lunch the brothers had come to know and love. In opening that first small restaurant, the McNie brothers and their family were personally trained and guided by Kekoa in making the same traditional Hawaiian food he had brought with him from the Island
