KATELYN O’RIORDAN - PUBLIC RELATIONS MANAGER, SHERATON MAUI RESORT & SPA - NEW DINNER MENU AT BLACK ROCK KITCHEN


SHERATON MAUI RESORT & SPA LAUNCHES NEW DINNER MENU AT BLACK ROCK KITCHEN

Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa’s signature restaurant Black Rock Kitchen has debuted a new dinner menu. Beginning today, resort guests, visitors and locals will have the opportunity to experience the new menu, which features an array of vibrant, fresh dishes that focus on locally sourced ingredients.

Conceptualized by Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa Chef de Cuisine Jeffrey Rayno, the inspired menu highlights Hawaii-grown ingredients through approachable, thoughtfully-prepared dishes.

“My passion for creativity is infused into each dish through new spins on traditional flavor profiles,” said Chef Rayno. “Each course explores ingredients that can be found right in our backyard, while also emphasizing classic comfort items like braised short ribs.”

Kicking off the menu are dishes like ahi sashimi with crisp green apple, jalapeno and local radish; as well as seared beef tenderloin skewers with toasted nori and a miso ponzu dipping sauce. Salad standouts include beets & quinoa, with Surfing Goat Dairy cheese, red and yellow beets, quinoa and fresh herbs; and a wedge Caesar with Waipoli Farms romaine, shaved grana padano, roasted garlic croutons and a sundried tomato Caesar dressing. Entrees include offerings like grilled Hawaiian catch of the day with Molokai sweet potato and coconut puree, ginger spiced broccolini and yuzu brown butter; and braised short ribs with polenta, Alii mushrooms, wilted rainbow chard and red wine short rib jus, among others.

Black Rock Kitchen is open daily for dinner between 5:30pm – 9:00pm.  For reservations, which are recommended, please call (808) 921-4600.
