This is the story of my grandmother Shizuko Teshima, born in 1907 to a Japanese couple who ventured across the ocean, to encounter a completely new way of life in old Hawaii. Grandma Teshima was famous for living to the age of 106, and of course, for her restaurant that she ran with the most authentic aloha spirit of kindness and generosity. As the Great Depression set in, she opened a store in a remote coffee farm village in old Hawai'i that slowly evolved into a thriving restaurant business. Teshima's Restaurant in Honalo, on the Big Island of Hawaii, has become a favorite eating place for locals, and for travelers from all over the world. Struggling through times of uncertainty and hardship, she helped many along the way as she struggled herself, but always received back more than imagined.
