Hawaii
BOTH Jane and Andre Tatibouet have demonstrated leadership, one in politics and the other in business, building up the Aston Hotel chain before selling it for millions. Now it turns out their offspring, Cartier and Cecily, have turned into something like the Caped Tatibouet skill hereditary
Crusaders themselves. Both have located on Cape Cod. Cartier operates the E.E.C. Swift & Co specialty food markets in Centerville and Dennis, where he gives advice on French wines to such customers as former Ambassador to France R. Sargent Shriver. Cecily, meanwhile, continues to draw raves for the Five Bays Bistro she opened in Osterville last fall. Last week she hosted such guests as Mary Higgins Clark and ABC's Sam Donaldson -- no, not together. The entire family was ecstatic with the glowing review of the 50-seat restaurant recently heaped on it by the prestigious Boston Globe. Looks like the "Gen. X" Tatibouets are following in their parents' footsteps ...
WHILE we're on the subject of offspring, Mark and Joanne Parrish have one on the rise and the other taking a breath-taking plunge. The two were dining with their 11-year-old daughter, Janel Parrish, and her acting coach Garrison True at Castagnola's in Niu Valley. Despite her age, Janel has been nominated for her second Po'okela acting award in two years. Last year she was in "To Kill a Mockingbird" and this year "Here's Love" at the Diamond Head Theater. Her elder sister, Melissa, a West Point cadet, was also saluted for having completed her first successful parachute jump at Fort Benning, Ga. ...
Like moths to the limelight
THE irrepressible, confetti spewing, mustachioed comic Rip Taylor is back for his annual respite "home" in the islands after headlining the Rockettes show at the Flamingo Hilton in Las Vegas. This is not to imply that he wore black lace stockings, though you'd hardly put it past him, either. Rip can't stay away from showbiz, so look (or listen) for him to turn up with Perry & Price on their KSSK radio show emanating from the Sheraton Waikiki's Hanohano Room. And he'll help host the big "Rent" kick-off at Restaurant Row on July 28 ... Meanwhile, when Hapa announced at Don Ho's Island Grill Wednesday night who the headliner would be at next month's live K5-KINE broadcast, there was an audible gasp. Starring in the show Aug. 16 will be the man for whom the room was named, Don Ho himself ...DOWNTOWN doings: The Downtown Planet had a doozy of a typo in its "Who's Happening" column. It listed the attorneys installed as officers in the "Hawaii Women Layers" association ... And I'm not suggesting that parking downtown is expensive, but I got a brochure in the mail offering a parking stall in Harbor Square for sale at $30,000 ...
They Love Lucy
HAVING retired her Wilbert Harrison recording, Island Business Magazine publisher Mary Winpenny opted not to go to Kansas City to attend the annual Association of Area Business Publications Conference there. She was going to have editor Lucy Jokiel represent the magazine, but Lucy begged off, having just returned from a month in Asia with an East-West Center group. So Jokiel never got to go forward and accept the national "Best Reporter" prize in K.C., winning out over 489 entrants. The award deemed her "an outstanding example of a hard-working reporter willing to go the extra mile." As long as it doesn't entail winding up in Kansas City, apparently ...
