Dondero’s – Kaua’i Dining   4 comments

We went to a very nice restaurant last evening – Dondero’s at the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa.  This restaurant is located on the lush and beautiful grounds of the Grand Hyatt.  Indoor and Outdoor seating is available.  I highly recommend outdoor seating.  The views of the ocean and hotel gardens are breathtaking.

Our experience began with a chat with the chef who was coming back from picking some fresh herbs…

He gave us a run down on the menu in full detail!  Oh My!

Truly the best way to see Kaua’i.  Most of the waterfalls on this island are not accessible neither are the Napali cliffs on the coast.  The only way to see some of the sites is by helicopter or plane or by boat and hiking if you are on the coast.  Wonderful, Wonderful experience.  Amazing sites.  I took over 200 pictures in the 1 hour helicopter ride.  My battery was screaming “recharge me you picture taking fiend!”

We go home today.  Bummed but refreshed!  I have to post our dinner experience last night. Just wonderful!

ALOHA!
