Spring Break Pop Up with JMR Food Concepts at the Embassy Suites Waikiki

Lobster Rolls 2.0

Last weekend, I was invited to attend the Spring Break Pakini Bar & Lounge Weekend Pop Up series at the Embassy Suites Waikiki featuring a VIP Chef's Table by Chef Jason Ramirez of JMR Food Concepts.  Guests of the Chef's table were treated to many delicious dishes as well as innovative and tasty wine cocktails by Oeno Winemaking and sweet treats by Coco's Cakes Hawaii.

Chef Jason is the owner of JMR Food Concepts and has over twenty years of culinary experience in San Francisco and Honolulu. He recently participated as a sous chef at James Beard House Foundation and lucky for us that experience has inspired him to bring his skills back to Hawaii. His company JMR Food Concepts provides private Chef's table, private catering, and consulting.   

Be on the lookout for more great events by Chef Jason of JMR Food Concepts and Embassy Suites Waikiki!

EATnPrivate at EAT Honolulu

Clockwise:  Seared Beef Sirloin; Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta, Gnocchi, Seared Scallop, Sautéed Prawn, Guava Granita, and Grilled Lamb Loin. 

Eat Honolulu serves up breakfast and lunch within the Na Lama Kukui Buidling (formerly known as the Gentry Pacific Design Center) on Nimitz Highway.  When they are not doing that, they are also a unique catering company with an exclusive private room and also offer personal chef services.   

I was invited to a dinner at their EATnPrivate concept where a party of up to 14 guests can enjoy a private meal created by Executive Chef David Passanisi and Team Eat.  EatnPrivate features Hawaiian Regional Cuisine and supports local Island ranchers, farmers and fishermen. 

The dinner was amazing and I enjoyed each gourmet creation.  I especially liked how the sauces complemented the main ingredient of each course resulting in a beautiful meshing of flavors.  The private room is casual and makes for a super fun time.  The service was excellent and the Chef took the time to describe each course to our party.  EATnPrivate would be a treat for anyone who appreciates great food!
