The Sheraton Waikiki Kai Market’s Executive Chef Darren Demaya has created a Christmas menu reminiscent of his small kid time growing up in Hawaii. The menu will feature traditional local-style dishes alongside holiday favorites for Christmas Day brunch and dinner.

Kai Market’s family-friendly atmosphere is the perfect place to enjoy a holiday brunch or dinner while treating the hard-working cooks in the family to a well-deserved day off. This farm-to-table dining establishment features cuisine inspired by generations of Hawaii’s multi-ethnic population, ensuring that everyone will find dishes they love.

Demaya created a menu that showcases tasty renditions of dishes inspired by Hawaii’s plantation roots and using Hawaii’s freshest, locally grown products to support local farmers.  These local-style dishes include oyster on the half shell served with ponzu sauce and grated daikon, Singapore-style Manila clams with Chinese lup cheong and nutmeg-spiced Molokai sweet potato puree topped off with flame-roasted baby marshmallows, Hawaiian-style seafood chowder with clams, Island fish, shrimp and Hawaiian taro.

Additional special dishes at the carving station for dinner include Chinatown roast duck with bao buns, fresh Nalo Farm micro cilantro and hoisin dipping sauce, pan-fried Hawaiian sea bass with Thai lobster curry sauce, Dole pineapple and rum raisin lehua honey-rubbed country-style Farmer John bone-in ham, as well as alae salt-crusted roast prime rib au jus with horseradish sour cream.
