Chef Roy is recognized as one of the founding fathers of Hawaiian fusion cuisine and he blends together Hawaiian flavors with influences from other cultures to create a medley of flavors sure to hit all the right taste buds. In March of 2016, Chef Roy announced he would be opening a new Roy’s restaurant at sea aboard MSC Cruises’ MSC Seaside. He joins a long line of Celebrity Chef Speakers who have opened restaurants on cruise lines such as Curtis Stone and Jamie Oliver.

Chef Roy’s Hawaiian fusion cuisine is a wide-ranging blend of California, classical French and Japanese cooking traditions. He was born and raised in Japan but attributes his love for Hawaiian cuisine from his paternal grandfather who owned a tavern in Maui during the 1940’s. He moved to New York to attend the Culinary Institute of America where he graduated in 1976. He then held a number of jobs working in revered California restaurants like L’Escoffier, Le Gourmet and L’Ermitage.
