Where on Maui do you find the best food for the lowest prices? The winner, hands down, is Maui Culinary Academy, which operates seven specialty kitchens and a high-end restaurant at Maui Community College. The restaurants are part of the school's food service program and offer a terrific place to eat breakfast or lunch if you're lucky enough to visit the island during the school season. Sushi, seafood, pasta, salads -- all beautifully prepared and presented -- are available in the Paina Food Court daily. (It's near the airport and is open 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.) "A lot of people think we aren't open to the public," says longtime chef instructor Bobby Santos. "We embrace the public. The busier we are, the more the students are going to learn."
