Hawaiian father-son duo recall opening their pizza shop

Chad Machado and his son, Xavier, live in Kekaha — a small town on Hawaii's western island of Kaua'i. Xavier never took to school, but had been obsessed with cooking from a young age. So when Chad lost his job during the Covid-19 pandemic, they decided to take a risk and open up a pizza shop.
