#1 Restaurant in Hawaii Launches New Menu
Halekulani, celebrated globally for its personalized service, masterful cuisine and innovation, announced La Mer's recognition by the prestigious Zagat Survey, which honored the Neoclassic French dining establishment with the highest scores among 730 reputable dining establishments in Hawaii. Yearly ratings are based on Zagat's signature 30-point scale encompassing three categories - food, service and décor. La Mer received an astonishing 29-point rating for all three categories.

Featuring fine Neoclassic French cuisine, exquisite oceanfront surroundings and exceptional service, La Mer is the longest consecutively ranked AAA Five Diamond restaurant in Hawaii. The ongoing acclaimed reputation of the culinary program at La Mer continues through the recent appointment of Alexandre Trancher as Chef de Cuisine. Chef Trancher brings an extensive background in Michelin Star cuisine, having worked at top restaurants around the world.

Chef Trancher has designed a new dinner menu and a six course Menu Degustation. Maintaining the signature La Mer style, which fuses indigenous ingredients - uniquely blended in dishes inspired by flavors from the South of France, highlights from the Menu Degustation include a Cured Foie Gras with Pineapple Chutney and Balsamic Glaze, Millefeuille of Seasonal Truffles and Scallops on Bok Choy and Sauce Perigueux, and Kadaif Crusted Lamb Loin with Eggplant Caviar, Lemon Scented Onion and Thyme Jus.

La Mer is open daily from 6 pm to 10 pm. Long-sleeved collared shirt or jacket required for gentlemen. As an elegant fine dining restaurant, La Mer restricts patrons to adults and children eight years and older. For reservations please call (808) 923-2311 or book online at OpenTable.
