Wow.
The Halapua restaurant at Kapuhala has it all. Great view, amazing food (all plant based), mixolgy roof top lounge and great staff.
I stayed here over Christmas and was amazed at the level of service and quality of food. I started my plant based diet only 2 months ago, so am new to all these tastes and textures. The executive chef, Greg, was happy to chat about his creations between courses, when he had a minute to pop out of the kitchen.
Day 1
Breakfast - Ultimate breakfast Burrito, a tortilla containing beans, tofu scramble, roasted potato tomatoes, bell peppers, onions and sauce. Very very yummy, but a little too much for even me!
Dinner - Fromage frais appetiser, Portobello main, Mulled pear dessert. The portabello was my favorite of this meal. Perfect sized portions, which give you just a little more than you can conmfortably eat.
Day 2
Breakfast - Hearty Skillet. Very similar to the burrito, but not quite so much of it and not in a tortilla. Served on a very hot plate. First thing I did when I got home was learn how to make tofu scramble!
Dinner - Gochudang Daikon appetiser - Bok Choy mash, braised dakon, apple :) Who knew you could make apple spaghetti! Red Rambo main - beetroot, quinoa, pomegranite - whats not to love. One of the desserts was not avaiable tonight, but thats ok, because it was replaced with coconut cake :)
Halapua has an extensive wine menu, a mixolgy (cocktail) menu, with all the classics, plus some very yummy new flavours, all beautifully presented. All the time spent on the rooftop, Tito, the Fu0026B manager, was wandering around, chatting to clients, making sure they were well taken care of.
Would I go again........?
A definate yes. There is still the rest of the menu to sample!!
