Hi, I’m Leah Landry, the voice (and cook!) behind Tasty Island Hawaii.
Food has always been my way of sharing, connecting, and creating joy. I grew up loving everything from sweet desserts that make you smile to hearty comfort food that feels like a warm hug.
Over the years, I’ve cooked my way through countless recipes, but Hawaiian-inspired dishes have always held a special place in my heart. They remind me of sunshine, fresh flavors, and the kind of good vibes that make life a little brighter.
On this site, you’ll find recipes that celebrate both tradition and creativity. Some will be rooted in the rich flavors of Hawaii, while others mix in global influences or everyday comfort classics. My goal is simple: to make cooking approachable, fun, and something you actually look forward to.
I believe food isn’t meant to be complicated or intimidating. It should be something that brings people together, whether you’re hosting a backyard barbecue, cooking a weeknight dinner, or baking something sweet just because. That’s the spirit behind Tasty Island Hawaii: making meals that feel like sunshine at the table.
So whether you’re here to try a new Hawaiian favorite, explore a creative twist on comfort food, or just pick up some kitchen inspiration, I’m glad you stopped by. Pull up a chair, grab a plate, and let’s share some good food together.
With aloha,
Leah
