hawaiian l'a a la sola (hawaiian fish at sola)

Aloha!

In February we offered our first prix fixe menu featuring bacon as our key ingredient. The bacon brittle ice-cream was a big hit for all of you bacon lovers. We would like to thank all of our loyal patrons for making our first prix fixe menu a huge success.

Hawaiian Seafood

Summer is slowly sneaking up on us and that means swim suits and less clothing! A great way to prepare for the season is to start eating healthy. Chef Wallack's favorite thing to eat and serve is Hawaiian seafood, which sola is best known for. Stop in and try the ahi tuna, (hoisin-mustard-panko crusted, bamboo rice, avocado tempura, soy-wasabi buerre blanc), mahi mahi, (wasabi crusted, curried sunchokes, coconut butter) or sola's classic tuna trio, (sweet, salty and spicy with thai cucumber salsa and ginger confit).

Facts about Hawaiian Seafood:

* Nutrition experts say that protein from fish is of better quality than plant sources like beans because it contains more of the essential amino acids needed to build and repair cells for the body.

* The beauty of eating seafood is that it allows for a greater variety of foods in your diet. It's readily available, relatively inexpensive and provides nutritious protein and beneficial fat, which can ultimately contribute to a healthful diet

*Seafood is rich in omega 3 fatty acids, which are proven to be good for the heart.
