Four Seasons Resort Hualalai is presenting a series of culinary events for food-loving travelers from March 1-5, 2012. Called Made in America 2, the celebration features high-profile dinners, cooking classes and experiences at or near the luxury oceanfront hotel on Hawaii Island's Kohala Coast.
Taking part in Made in America 2 are some of Los Angeles' top chefs, including Nancy Silverton and Matt Molina (Osteria Mozza, Pizzeria Mozza, The Mozza Cookbook), Ludo and Krissy Lefebvre (LudoBites, Sundance Channel’s LudoBites America, Top Chef Masters) and Josiah Citrin (Mélisse, Lemon Moon Café, In Pursuit of Excellence).
Each of the participants is featured in the book Made in America, which showcases America’s classic comfort food dishes reinvented by 100 of today’s top chefs from across the United States.
Four Seasons Hualalai's executive chef James Babian and pastry chef Linda Rodriguez serve as hosts for the celebrations. Chuck Furuya from Southern Wine and Spirits is pairing wines at the various dinners.
“After the success of our first Made in America events in October, we decided to do this again, even bigger and better,” says Robert Whitfield, regional vice president and general manager of Four Seasons Resort Hualalai. “This lineup of amazing guest chefs is top-notch, offering some great culinary experiences for our guests.”
Each evening features a dinner crafted by some or all of the chefs. Clients can also take cooking classes, go on a farm tour with lunch, take a fishing trip with the chefs, attend a wine tasting and learn the art of pie making.
Four Seasons Hualalai is offering room and event packages timed with Made in America 2. Events are also available on an a la carte basis.
