Published on: May 25, 2013 – 1:43 pm

By Marta Lane, Owner of Tasting Kauai: May 25th — People often say there isn’t a lot of good food on Kauai and that’s simply not true. After writing hundreds of articles on food and farming, Marta Lane has written Tasting Kauai: Restaurants. The guide covers everything from food trucks to fine dining and includes 69 restaurants that make fresh food from scratch and use local ingredients whenever possible.

Colorful photos evoke your senses and whimsical graphics provide essential information. Icons make it easy to reference what types of meals the restaurant serves (breakfast, lunch or dinner) as well as price ranges and dress code. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free icons identify dining options for those on alternative diets. Additional icons point out free Wi-Fi, food trucks and when reservations are recommended.

TastingKauai.com is an online resource dedicated to eating well on Kauai, from seed to table. The website features a list of farmers markets, recipes, Hawaii cookbook reviews, and holiday restaurant menus. Pau Hana Friday blog posts detail Kauai food news and events. Monthly culinary tours and weekly farmers market classes empower and connect people to some of Kauai’s best farmers and chefs. Marta Lane’s work can be seen every week in Midweek Kauai in her two columns Tastes of Kauai and Farmers Markets.
