Kauai Restaurant The Beach House

0929beachhouseThe Beach House Restaurant on Kauai has a spectacular oceanfront setting along the island’s south shore. It is just steps away from the ocean and the nightly ritual of watching spectacular sunsets. This restaurant combines a dreamy ocean view with gracious Hawaiian service and innovative Pacific Rim Cuisine. Few Kauai experiences are more delightful than sitting at one of the outside tables and savoring a delectable meal while the sun sinks into the Pacific. This is the epitome of tropical dining.

A few signature dishes that appear regularly are macadamia nut crab cakes, wasabi-crusted snapper, mint-coriander lamb rack, lemongrass and kaffir-lime sea scallops, and seared macadamia-nut-crusted fresh local fish. For a decadent finale there is the irresistible molten chocolate desire, a flour-less chocolate mocha tart, baked to order and served hot, with vanilla bean ice cream and espresso crème anglaise. And let’s not forget their majestic mai tai, or tikitini – a coconut rum martini.

This winning formula of creative twists on Pacific Rim Cuisine, Hawaiian hospitality, and a slice of paradise with its unbeatable location make it a favorite for visitors and locals. It has won Honolulu Magazine’s Hale Aina Gold Award for Best Kauai Restaurant, Garden Island Reader’s Survey for Most Romantic Restaurant on Kauai, and awards from Wine Spectator and Bon Appétit Magazines. All of this makes The Beach House Restaurant a very popular dining experience. Share your experience.

Business Success and The Go-Giver

0909thegogiver1The Go-Giver is a heartwarming and inspiring tale of an ambitious young man named Joe who yearns for business success. Joe is a go-getter that finds new relevance to the old proverb “give and you shall receive.” In a world where it seems businesses are increasingly out to get your dollars and not your loyalty, it’s refreshing to find a business development book that teaches just the opposite. Joe is introduced to several Go Givers who share with him the Five Laws of Stratospheric Success. At the root of this methodology is the concept of giving, and experiencing the rewards that result. Joe learns that changing his focus from getting to giving, and continually adding value to customers lives leads to unexpected returns. The Go-Giver is an exceptional masterpiece that conveys to business owners and entrepreneurs the importance of serving the customer.

The Five Laws of Stratospheric Success

  • The Law of Value – Your true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment.
  • The Law of Compensation – Your income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.
  • The Law of Influence – Your influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people’s interests first.
  • The Law of Authenticity – The most valuable gift you have to offer is yourself.
  • The Law of Receptivity – The key to effective giving is to stay open to receiving.

Hawaii Libraries

0903hawaiilibraries‘Keep The Doors Open!’ is an ambitious, state-wide campaign launched by The Hawaii State Public Library System and the Friends of the Library of Hawaii to keep the doors of all of Hawaii’s public libraries open. The library budget has been cut so severely that every library has had to cut back its staff and its services. “We are asking every resident of Hawai‘i to donate at least $3 to help us meet this additional budget reduction of $3 million.”

“We know that each community values its library as an important resource, and the Friends of the Library of Hawaii wants to ensure that no community loses its library,” said Susan Li, president of the Friends of the Library of Hawaii. “We believe that communities will do whatever is necessary to keep their libraries open, and so we are turning to all of you throughout the state to be part of this fundraising effort.”

There are several ways to donate:
1. Send cash or a check payable to FLH to Friends of the Library of Hawaii with “Keep the Doors Open!” in the memo line. Address: 690 Pohukaina St., Honolulu, HI 96813
2. Visit the Friends Web site and make a donation on line using your credit card.
3. Call the Friends office at 536-4174 and use your credit card over the phone.
4. Visit any branch of Bank of Hawaii and tell them you’d like to make a donation to the Keep the Doors Open!
