Garden Fresh at Four Seasons Resort Lanai

Garden to table comes to life in just a few steps at Four Seasons Resort Lanai with the debut of the Mailbu Farm Harvest Garden.  Located minutes from the restaurant, which overlooks the beautiful Hulopoe Bay, the garden provides Malibu Farm with fresh and locally sourced ingredients found in a variety of delicious menu items.

The Lanai outpost of Los Angeles' Malibu Farm, a favourite of local residents, surfers and A-list celebrities alike, features lunch and pupus daily, with restaurant favourites as well as island-inspired dishes.

The garden is bursting with tomatoes, cucumbers, swiss chard, zucchini, bell peppers, radishes and a number of herbs.  Look for butternut squash, hot chilli peppers and malabar spinach to round out the vegetables while edible flowers are all in a row to compliment salads and soups.  On the fruit side, tropical delights such as dwarf papaya, dragon fruit, lilikoi and pineapple lend bursts of flavour.  Sample items from Chef Ernest Lopez including vegan chop salad, grilled local fish and vegan coconut curry.

Guests can visit the Malibu Farm Harvest Garden on a complimentary guided tour of the Resort’s Hawaiian Botanical Gardens offered weekly.
