Like it or not, once Halloween is over, it’s time to start planning Thanksgiving. This annual event turns everyone into a foodie for at least a weekend of feasting. So why not feast all month while restaurants are generously donating to charity? Here are three foodie events to put on your calendar:
RESTAURANT WEEK (Nov. 14-20)
Restaurant Week, now in its second year on Maui, has long been huge on Oahu. You’ll be eating out at Cane & Taro, Genki Sushi, Betty’s Beach Cafe, Black Rock Streak & Seafood, Five Palms Kihei, Five Palms Lahaina, Leis Family Class Act Restaurant, Pineapple Grill at Kapalua Resort, Ruth’s Chris Steak House and the Flatbread Company. These restaurants will offer different pre fixe multi-course meals and special promotions and will donate a portion of proceeds to the Culinary Institute of the Pacific at Diamond Head. The full list of detailed menu items is available at http://www.
