Three Fun Food-Related Things to Do in Honolulu by Gail Jennings Comment on this Column! This month I decided to do something different for the column and I have to say that the research I did for this article was by far the most delicious, entertaining and enjoyable that I've ever done! The premise of the article was to find fun food-related activities in a variety of price ranges. The only criteria for the activities was that all of them be something local residents would enjoy and that they be food-focused. Here in Hawaii we are blessed with such a variety of food and restaurants, but sometimes we get in a rut. I can guarantee that any of these activities will help to shake off the "there's nothing to do blues" that we all get sometimes. Cheaper than a trip to Vegas, too! So, without further ado we will set forth on some genuine culinary adventures beginning with Hawaii Food Tours' Hole-in-the-Wall Tour, then we will play gourmet chef for a day via a GourmetCookingHawaii.com class, and last, but certainly not least, we will make our own wine at Wine The Experience. Come along and enjoy the ride! HAWAII FOOD TOURS - The Hole-in-the-Wall Tour Founded by long-time restaurant critic, Matthew Gray, Hawaii Food Tours is the ultimate, affordable way to spoil yourself, friends and family for a day or an evening. I tagged along on the Hole-in-the-Wall tour and it was more fun than you can imagine - it's like playing tourist for a day but better. It will broaden your palate and your horizons for only $59. I can see this tour being really fun for couples, people with friends and family visiting from off-island or just about anyone who wants to get a new perspective on food and restaurants. You'll visit a minimum of four different eateries and never have to worry about driving or finding parking - you just get to relax and enjoy. We were picked up at the tour bus stop at the Ala Moana Hotel around 10am. (You can park at the Ala Moana Center, walk across the footbridge to the Ala Moana Hotel and make your way to Mahukona Street, which separates the hotel from the shopping center parking area - very easy.) Matthew himself greeted us and his partner, Keira, loaded us into the van and we were off to our first stop. Along the way, the entire van chatted about food and peppered Matthew with questions about what it was like being a real food critic and food in Hawaii. Matthew has a great sense of humor and he and Keira set a really friendly tone which got all of us, who were strangers, laughing and talking with each other.

Fill out our online form and tell us about it. We'll select and consider those who fit the bill! Our first stop was Sugoi Bento where we feasted on a special mini-bento of their Spicy Garlic Chicken (yum!), Beef Teriyaki and Hapa Rice (two parts white, one part brown). What a great place this is and one I didn't know about, but now that I do, I'll definitely be back there for some more of that chicken and other offerings. Summer Rolls Our second stop was at Pho Nam where again we were treated to a special plate of food which featured Green Papaya Salad, Spring Rolls and Stir-fry Noodles with Veggies. Matthew took the time to introduce the various ingredients, sauces and seasonings so that those unfamiliar with them would have a better understanding of Vietnamese and Southeast Asian cuisines. We were off again, feeling full but ready to keep going. Our next stop at Zaffron was the most exciting to me because I have a particular fondness for Indian food. The first thing Matthew did was bring each of us a steaming cup of their specially blended Spiced Chai which really hit the spot. Then we were able to fill our styrofoam trays (so convenient for the leftovers - you don't have to ask for a take away box) from the buffet. By the time we returned, baskets of hot Naan bread were waiting and we dove in with gusto. Preparation of naan bread The best part about this stop was the great relationship Matthew has with Zaffron owner, Farad Khan, which meant that we got to see the Naan bread being made and ask Mr. Khan questions about the restaurant and the food. We learned that all of Zaffron's vegetarian dishes are strictly vegan, which is a big plus to those who follow such a regime, and the Khan family is ethnically Indian but from Fiji, which accounts for the Fijian flag and other Fijian memorabilia. Mr. Khan should be designated as the Fiji ambassador of tourism here in Hawaii - he is truly proud of his homeland. Demonstrating the flexible nature of this great tour, one of our party wished to stroll through Chinatown and purchase some items, and since none of the rest of us objected, we set out on a walking side trip. With the shopping completed and everyone ready for the next stop, there was Keira with the van and we piled in to find little bags for each of us with Manapua and Pork Hash from Char Hung Sut ! A nice little bonus which was of special interest to the off-island visitors. Leonard's legendary malasadas Our final stop of the day was Leonard's Bakery for a taste of their legendary Malasadas. The final stop on the Hole-in-the-Wall tour varies depending on the day of the week with it being either Leonard's for the aforementioned Malasadas or Liliha Bakery for their equally famed Coco Puffs. Leonard's was a great stop with everyone crowding around the glass cases to see the various offerings and taking pictures of the Guava Cake and other confections which we sometimes forget are quite unique to Hawaii. We enjoyed the freshly cooked Malasadas, too! All in all, this was such good fun and really enjoyable. I can't guarantee that you'll visit the same restaurants we did but I can guarantee that wherever you go it will be tasty and Matthew will ensure that you have a wonderful and informative time. Hawaii Food Tours also offers a Hawaiian Feast in Paradise ($99) which is, as you might expect, a luau with all of the attendant food and entertainment. The final offering is the Gourmet Trilogy Food & Wine ($149) which will take you to three of Honolulu's best fine-dining restaurants for appetizers, entree and dessert all paired with wine. Matthew says that the Gourmet Trilogy is perfect for food and wine lovers who are adventurous and passionate about their dining. Can't decide what to get that special couple for an anniversary gift? Send them on the Gourmet Trilogy Food & Wine Tour - they'll thank you and it will be an experience they will long remember.

You might ask what was I doing heading to a restaurant that wasn't even going to open for several hours when I could be at home in jammies with a hot cup of coffee? Well, I had not lost my mind, nor was I unhappy to be out and about early on the weekend. I was going to a Gourmet Cooking Class offered by GourmetCookingHawaii.com which was being taught by one of my favorite chefs, Rodney Uyehara of The Bistro at Century Center. I had always wanted to attend one of GourmetCookingHawaii.com's classes but making the time was a challenge. I finally resolved that I simply had to do it, checked the schedule and when I discovered Chef Rodney was teaching the next class, I made the call. My call was returned by Kathleen Hurtubise, the creative force behind GourmetCookingHawaii.com and, as I learned, a great producer of a wonderful concept which has become a must-do for lovers of food and cooking. Salmon prep There is something magical about being in a restaurant "after hours," as it were, seeing the raw ingredients come together into a gourmet dish at the hands of a skilled chef. You feel like you are learning secrets, and in a sense you are, as you get the rare opportunity to ask and hear questions answered by a culinary professional in a relaxed and friendly environment. There were 14 of us in the class and at least a couple of them have attended every single class offered since GourmetCookingHawaii.com launched in 2003. The attendees covered all the ethnic bases, and both genders were represented. Kathleen herself said that her husband, Kevin Lin, had never cooked until he started helping her run the classes. He is now an avid cook and budding gourmand. And, for any men who haven't thought about cooking as a hobby, trust me when I say that there is nothing quite as attractive as a man who cooks... now that's hot! The menu for the day was Salmon Tartare accompanied by Timbach Pinot Gris 2001; Stuffed Breast of Capon ( see the recipe here ) accompanied by E. Euigal Cotes du Rhone 2001 and Banana Flambe accompanied by Bonny Doon Muscat Vin de Glaciere 2003. Executive Chef Rodney Uyehara was ably assisted by his sous chef and various class members. Want a bit of instruction in knife technique? Volunteer to help with the prep and pick up some hands-on pointers. The wine service and discussion was led by Kim Karalovich from The Wine Stop , and her knowledge and approachable attitude towards wine was integral to making this a complete food and wine experience. Mushrooms galore (hedgehog, inoki, shimeji, morel and dried porcinis, etc.) for the capon sauce We learned many things including where to find frozen veal demi glace ( Y. Hata ) for the sauce and caul fat*, (Chinatown) which was used to secure the capons before cooking. And, if you don't have the time or inclination to get those ingredients, there are acceptable substitutes. Then we were given an in-depth look at the ingredients to be used. I was most interested in the variety of mushrooms used in the sauce for the capon - they had hedgehog, inoki, shimeji, morel and dried porcinis among others. Flamb! All of the food was delicious but the flambed dessert of Bananas Foster was a spectacular finale. I'm so glad these retro-style desserts are enjoying a resurgence in popularity. We all loved watching the flames dance over the pan as the liquor cooked off and the sugars started to caramelize into a luscious rum sauce for the bananas and vanilla ice cream. It was really good. The best part, of course, is eating the delicious food and enjoying the wine pairings. At $95 a class, this is an excellent value which reaps a great food and wine experience taught by any one of a number of Honolulu's best chefs with wine pairings and explanations from The Wine Stop. You also receive a fabulous goodie bag stuffed with all manner of valuable and useful items. Your gift bag will have items specific to your class and the dishes from a variety of sources including Kaiulani Spices (this stuff is so good!) and Compleat Kitchen amongst others. GourmetCookingHawaii.com can also organize a special class for your group or business and the classes are increasingly popular for business groups. Gift certificates are available and would make a perfectly thoughtful gift for the food lover in your life. *The membrane from the lining of a pig's stomach commonly used to secure stuffed or rolled meat dishes. GourmetCookingHawaii.com Telephone: 735-7788 Email: info@gourmetcookinghawaii.com Website: GourmetCookingHawaii.com WINE THE EXPERIENCE - What an Experience it is, Too! If it weren't for my intrepid better half, I wouldn't have learned about this great shop located on Kapahulu Avenue in Kilohana Square. Since we have a single vehicle, we often car pool to our various appointments and take turns hanging out while the other works. It was this sometimes inconvenient circumstance which led to one of the great discoveries of the year. While I was in a meeting, he was wandering around the shops at Kilohana Square and immediately gravitated to a cool looking shop with lots of wine bottles, and an intriguing name, Wine The Experience. As I headed back to the car, he was eagerly waving at me to come and see what he'd found. And what he'd found is something that will make any wine lover, party planner, corporate entity or just regular folks who enjoy wine very happy. According to Shannon Ball, wine maker and the person in charge of running the day-to-day operations of the business, making wine at home has been around since the days of prohibition, when enterprising vendors came up with the idea of mailing grape juice along with some yeast to customers with instructions not to combine the two or an alcoholic product would result. More recently, the phenomena of wine making as a hobby took hold in North America with Canada really starting the trend about 20 years ago. He said there are about 50 wine making businesses of this basic type in the United States right now, but they have taken the concept a step further by introducing service and style into the operation. What that means is that Wine The Experience is a stylish, user-friendly place with a great atmosphere patterned in part after the wine tasting rooms at wineries which Shannon visited while doing research for the business. The entire process costs between $275 to $300 depending upon the wine you choose to make and the result will be 29 to 30 bottles of your own private label wine. That comes out to less than $10 a bottle on the low end and just over $10 at the high end - and they provide the bottles, labels (more about this later), corks and foil - basically everything you need to create your own bottles of wine. We decided to give it a go, so the first step was to schedule a wine tasting to select the wine we wanted to bottle. We set a date, then called our friends, the Schultzs, and asked them to join us for the tasting. On the appointed day we arrived and Shannon and his father John greeted us with genuine enthusiasm. It is easy to see that this business is a labor of love for the Ball family and that they care very much about what they do and making their customers happy. I learned from Shannon that he and his father did most of the build-out in the facility from the floors (perfect for dancing!) to the painting. They had set up a nice spread of various cheeses and crackers to accompany the wines which made for a nicely festive mood. We were each given a special note card to use for jotting down our impressions of the various wines we would try. After perusing the list of available wines and some discussion, it was decided that, given the time of year and the type of cooking we do during the summer months, we would focus on finding a white wine. We started out with the usual suspects like Chardonnay, Reisling, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Gris then we tried an Australian Murray River Reserve which blended Colombard, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscat. We also tried an interesting Italian Verdicchio which came in second on our list of possibilities. We finally settled on a Viognier because we found it the most pleasing overall. Barrel of yeast Once our decision was made, Shannon went into the winemaking area and returned a short time later with a "barrel" filled with grape juice and a packet of yeast. We ceremoniously sprinkled the yeast over the juice and then it was returned to the climate controlled warehouse to ferment for two months. We got to take a peek at some of the wines fermenting and noted quite a few barrels for wedding receptions - what a great way to commemorate a special occasion. While we're waiting for our wine to finish we are busy designing our very own labels. At Wine the Experience we saw labels featuring peoples' pets, commemorative ones for weddings, birthdays and anniversaries, labels to promote events such as the Hawaii Film Festival and lots of others that just reflected the unique personalities of the people behind the wine. A particularly notable group of labels was for the Tangueros which is a local group of tango enthusiasts. When it's time to bottle our wine we have the option of not only bottling the wine but holding a party at the same time. For each barrel of wine bottled you can bring along 12 people, so two barrels allows 24 people and so on and so forth with a maximum of 48. If we choose to have a party, we can bring our own food or Shannon will help us find a caterer and make the arrangements. Personally, I think music and dancing is in order along with some really tasty food. Look for the final installment of this wine saga at HawaiiDiner.com sometime in June!

Name: Your Feedback/Comments: Name: kimo sutton Remote Name: 204.210.108.99 Date: Tuesday, May 03, 2005 Time: 10:17 AM Feedback Have you done an article on the largest vegetarian organization in the US (Local)? It is 0ver1,500 stong with lots of discounts, at restaurant, markets, etc... I have been a member for over ten years and the Hawaii Vegetarian Society has speakers and resources for a healthy lifestyle. Check recipes with Dr. Shintani, try the vegetrian dim sum and lunch dishes at the Chinese Cultural center's Legends Vegetarian, the best I have ever tried any where.Take out at Well Bento a goumet chef, or a lunch at Celestrialrial Natural foods little diner, a realnhole in the wall in Haleiwa. Name: tm Remote Name: 69.75.100.193 Date: Tuesday, May 03, 2005 Time: 02:41 PM Feedback Including Leonard's and Liliha Bakery on a hole-in-the-wall tour is a bit of a stretch in my opinion. I'm not saying that those two places aren't totally ono, but surely the tour operators could find more obscure places that actually ARE holes-in-the-wall. Honestly, who hasn't heard of Leonard's or Liliha Bakery? Unless it offers more than a "take-a-ticket-stand-in-line-order-your-pastries" experience, it doesn't seem like it's worth it for local residents. Name: Julie Rosner Remote Name: 66.91.13.93 Date: Tuesday, May 03, 2005 Time: 04:01 PM Feedback What a great article and fun ideas on what to do! I wanted to fly to Honolulu and do all three. Are there any similar businesses on the Big Island? Name: Local Chef Remote Name: 66.8.197.18 Date: Thursday, May 05, 2005 Time: 05:06 PM Feedback I have been on two of the Hawaii Food Tours so far (the Hole in the Wall Tour, and the Hawaiian Feast in Paradise Tour) and I think this company has a winning formula. Matthew Gray and his assistant Keira are warm and funny and fascinating. They told me that the tours were originally designed for tourists, but that a lot of local residents are coming on too. I'm going to get their gift certificates for all my friends and family. *Highly recommended* Name: Bobby Remote Name: 69.75.103.149 Date: Friday, May 06, 2005 Time: 04:16 PM Feedback I agree with TM. I love those places too. But may I offer JJ's French Pastry on Waialae? It's small and the pastry is soooooooo incredible! Name: Gail Remote Name: 66.91.25.226 Date: Saturday, May 07, 2005 Time: 07:28 AM Feedback Thanks for all of the great feedback. To Kimo: Thanks for the vegetarian suggestion. I am aware of HVS and its mission. Send me an email and we can discuss a possible article. To TM & Bobby: Addressing the question of whether or not Leonard's or Liliha should be included in the tour, I believe the tours were originally designed for visitors and local participation happened almost by happy accident. I also think it's possible that many people, myself included, don't live or work near either Leonard's or Liliha and rarely, if ever, enjoy their products. Their inclusion does not bother me at all. Another point is that the restaurant/eatery needs to be able and willing to accomodate groups frequently and not always on an exact schedule - while JJ French Pastry is amazing, it might be difficult for them to manage the influx without annoying regular patrons. To Julie: To the best of my knowledge there are no similar businesses on the Big Island. Plan a getaway and come over to Oahu and enjoy! Name: winefan Remote Name: 66.8.156.112 Date: Monday, May 09, 2005 Time: 08:54 AM Feedback Please note that you spelled two of the wine names wrongly: it's Trimbach not Timbach, and Guigal not Euigal.This whole article reads like a paid-for plug for the merchants concerned, which makes it hard to take the reviews seriously. Name: Gail Remote Name: 66.91.25.226 Date: Monday, May 09, 2005 Time: 01:02 PM Feedback Dear Winefan,The spelling errors are my own and unfortunately they are not easy to correct once the article is posted here. While I am also a wine fan, I am not an expert nor do I pretend to be. Fortunately, one doesn't need to be an expert to enjoy wine. I am mildly offended that you presume the businesses I wrote about paid for the article but not terribly. It's entirely possible that I am more easily pleased than some. For the record, I got paid the same amount for writing the article that you did for expressing your opinion. Cheers, Gail Name: Sugoi's Number One Fan Remote Name: 24.94.68.150 Date: Monday, May 09, 2005 Time: 09:32 PM Feedback I enjoyed reading the article, as it provided me with fun activities to do! I think that the food tours are a great idea for both tourists and kamaaina.As for Sugoi Bento and Catering, I have to admit that I am addicted to their bentos and plate lunches!! They simply are the best out there. Anyone who has not eaten at Sugoi must go!! Their garlic chicken is the best! Name: S&B Remote Name: 66.91.141.158 Date: Tuesday, May 10, 2005 Time: 07:27 AM Feedback The food tour is a great idea. Of the restaurants featured we are familiar with Sugoi and Leonards. Leonards malasadas are always the perfect dessert, especially when they are hot and fresh. Our favorite at Sugoi bento is their mochiko and garlic chicken bentos. They give a generous amount of food and fantastic service. Name: debbiebullman Remote Name: 24.165.58.5 Date: Tuesday, May 10, 2005 Time: 06:19 PM Feedback This was a great article. My favorite by far was on sugoi resturant. They have great food but most of all the service is just cream of the crop. I encourage everyone to enjoy the sugoi experience. Name: Taco Queen Remote Name: 128.171.138.117 Date: Wednesday, May 11, 2005 Time: 01:19 PM Feedback The food tour is such a great idea! Of the restaurants featured, Sugoi's tops my list! I've used them to cater a large event for the UH Law School and everyone couldn't get enough of the food! The service was fantastic and the garlic chicken ... oh so good! Sugoi's is a must! Name: kelly calistro Remote Name: 66.91.66.167 Date: Wednesday, May 11, 2005 Time: 09:51 PM Feedback we love eating sugoi's food!! the food is very tasty and of course the generous portions. good job zach!!!go menes.(coach kel) Name: Amy Laboy Remote Name: 205.188.117.66 Date: Friday, May 13, 2005 Time: 10:15 PM Feedback I love Sugoi! I have been enjoying their food for many years. I love their garlic chicken! They recently catered my son's first bithday party. Everyone raved about the food. I have recommended them to many people since the party. Name: CHANGG020 Remote Name: 66.8.201.36 Date: Saturday, May 14, 2005 Time: 05:26 PM Feedback I SAW UR ADS,AND IT WAS VERY HELPFUL FOR ME AND MY FRIENDS Name: k Remote Name: 66.8.215.216 Date: Monday, May 16, 2005 Time: 08:31 AM Feedback This article sounds like an advertisement for this tour...Couldn't you do this on your own and save some $$$$? Name: Gail Remote Name: 66.91.25.226 Date: Monday, May 16, 2005 Time: 04:08 PM Feedback Hi K, Of course you could do this on your own but the fun of the tour is the interaction with the other people in the group plus Matthew & Keira and getting to see the inside workings of a place like Zaffron. Don't discount the convenience of not having to drive or find parking either. The article is definitely pro-tour so, if you want to call that an advertisement, go ahead. Eat well and enjoy, Gail Name: Matthew Gray -Chief Food Guy at Hawaii Food Tours Remote Name: 66.8.197.18 Date: Monday, May 16, 2005 Time: 09:26 PM Feedback Aloha Friends,<P>It astounds me that there are so many negative posters out there. People like the one who calls him or herself "k" obviously doesn't "get it." Gail Jennings is doing you a service by highlighting businesses such as my <A HREF=" http://www.hawaiifoodtours.com ">Hawaii Food Tours</A>. Gail is not a critic; she is a writer who focuses on the positive elements of things around her. She is smart, delightful and always welcome in my world. <P><B>*Special note to "k"</B> -- Doing the tour by yourself to "save money" is not what we're about. However, it sounds as though you'd prefer to try and save a few bucks instead of getting out and experiencing a fun, informative, delicious, and social event. And that's okay with us; most people love what we're doing and will most likely return for more of what we offer.<P>To the rest of you open-minded people, I look forward to meeting & feeding you one day soon...

It seems to be an ingenious business and which I would like to use to put up some wine. Except for your excellent article I would have not known and suspect many others would not have known about it. I used to love Honolulu and Oahu 20-30 years ago but like the Big Island so much I only reluctantly go to Honolulu every several years. Wine the Experience might motivate me to go to Honolulu sooner.

Hawaii Vacation in Lanai City - Hotel Lanai - Lodging near the island of Maui Hawaii Vacation in Lanai City - Hotel Lanai - Lodging near the island of Maui Just a few of the things to do while on Lanai: -Jeep Adventures -Tennis -Scuba Diving/Snorkel Excursions -Mountain Biking -Day Ferry Excursions to Lanai & Maui -Fishing Charters -Horseback Riding -Championship Golf -Sporting Clays -Hiking -Spa Treatments -Whale Watching (Dec.-May) -Hunting -Lei Making and Crafts From Mauka (mountain), to Makai (sea) activities on Lanai are endless. If you are here for a little R&R, it's the perfect place. If you are looking for some fun or are in search of an adventure, you will find it here. If you are looking for something different, there is plenty to try. If you want to stay on the rugged side of things, you can find numerous hiking and mountain biking areas. Horseback riding has also become a popular activity within the area. If you prefer the traditional sports, test your skills on any of the local championship golf courses or go play a few sets at area tennis courts. You can also take aim with any of the sporting clay and hunting areas locally available. For those of you who prefer to play in the water a bit, try scuba diving or snorkel excursions with Trilogy Ocean Sports. Spa treatments, day ferry excursions to Lanai, whale watching (Dec-May), and fishing charters are just a few of the activities that will give you the chance to "get your feet wet." For everyone else, there is a wide variety of Lei making, crafts, and much, much more. Places to visit: The Munro Trail : Named for George Munro, the New Zealand naturalist who planted Lanai's magnificent pines, this eight mile four wheel drive and hiking trail starts about a mile north of Lanai City and climbs in a southeasterly direction through impressive rain forests and deep canyons. It leads to the 3,370-foot Lanai Hale, the highest point on the island. On a clear day, all of Hawaii's islands, except Kaua'i and Ni'ihau, can be seen from this perch. Manele Bay & Hulopo'e Beach : A section of paved highway 440 known as Manele Road links Lanai City with picturesque Manele Bay, which has a small boat harbor with slips for local boats and tour boats from Maui. West of this port is Hulopo'e the island's most beautiful and safest swimming beach. It is the only picnic site on Lanai that has tables, barbecues, showers and rest rooms. The Bay and Hulopo'e beach are part of a marine conservancy district, which means outstanding snorkeling. Kaumalapau Harbor : Another paved stretch of Highway 440 which, like the one to Manele Bay, cuts through miles of what used to be pineapple fields and is now hay fields, connects Lanai City with this main island port. Pineapples, vehicles and freight are shipped out from this harbor. Other than this activity the simple harbor is of little interest to outsiders, but the dramatic views of the sea, high bluffs, and jagged cliffs on the stretch of the coast are worth the six-mile ride from town. Kaunolu Village : Also on the south coast, about midway between Kaumalapau Harbor and Hulopo'e Beach, are the remains of a once busy fishing community. Scattered on a bluff above the ocean, these ruins of more than 80 homes and other structures are said to be the most extensive and best preserved in the state. A national historical landmark, Kaunolu lies at the end of a rugged three-mile jeep trail that can be traveled only when the soil is dry. This area was a favored summertime playground of a great King of the Hawaiian Islands, King Kamehameha the Great. From the cliffs high above the sea at Kahekili's deep leap, Kamehameha's soldiers proved their courage by plunging more than 60 feet into the ocean. Garden of the Gods : This is a fascinating canyon of wind carved sand and lava formations whose colors change throughout the day. Legend has it, that the rock formations were created by the gods. It is said that the gods like making art and this is where they would make their sculptures. The gods would make strong winds to sculpt their rock art formations. That is why there is no grass or trees in the garden of the gods, just dirt and stones surround. Legend tells us, it is bad luck to tamper with the artwork of the gods. So be respectful when visiting this sacred place. Polihua Beach : Just beyond Garden of the Gods, this trail snakes for a few miles down to a two-mile long white sand beach. This secluded, dreamy stretch of white sand is not recommended for swimming because of strong currents, but noted for excellent surfing. Great for picnicking or just strolling along the beach. Shipwreck Beach : Highway 440, also known as Keomoku road, leads from town to Lanai's northeast or windward coast. This narrow and winding road climbs high over the middle of the island and offers are stunning views of both Moloka'i and Maui as well as the abandoned, rusting hulls of two fairly large ships that gave the four-mile beach of white sand its name. Most of the eight mile stretch of road is paved until you reach a dirt road, which takes you left, into the entrance of the beach. Keomoku Village : At the end of the paved portion of Highway 440 (Keomoku Road) a dirt road branches right along the coast. Following this road about six miles will bring you to the site of the Maunalei Sugar Company, (it's said that if one hikes far into the trees toward the mountains, you'll find the remainders of the train tracks that was used to haul sugar cane). Having failed in 1901, all but one of the decaying buildings were razed in the early 1970's. Left standing was the Hawaiian Church. Legend maintains that sacred stones, placed by the Gods, were moved to build this fishing village. As a result, the water turned brackish and forced the villagers to leave. Lanai Weekly events : Saturday Market in Dole park: A weekly gathering of local vendors, as they proudly present authentic fares. Local grown vegetables, potted plants and a cultural mix of Hawaiian, Japanese, and Filipino delicacies can be found. Local artists and craft makers may also display their works of art here. Lanai Theatre : First run movies are played from Friday through Tuesday evenings. Two shows at 6:30 p.m. and 8:15 p.m. Special events : Lanai Visiting Artist Program: Throughout the calendar year the island community and visitors have a unique opportunity to meet and mingle with world-famous virtuosos of literature, music, film, fine arts and the culinary world. This program is sponsored by Castle & Cooke Resorts, LLC., Island Air and Happy Vacations. Please inquiry directly, for information on a schedule of the upcoming visiting artist program.
