News Clipping from Pacific Business News.: by Bill Cresenzo:
As a director of operations at Tiki's Grill & Bar in Waikiki, Michael Miller knows something about Hawaii's robust restaurant scene.
He said that visitor counts are up, and locals come to eat in Waikiki because "Waikiki has value to it."

• Technology has drastically changed the way people eat. For example, diners used to rely mostly on guidebooks for information about restaurants. Now, they rely on websites such as Yelp ...To continue reading subscribe now

About the Chef
Executive Chef Ronnie Nasuti developed his skills at the Les Dames d’Escoffier Society and completed a culinary apprenticeship at the Copley Plaza Hotel in Boston.
When he first came to Hawaii, he worked at Horatio’s (now Kincaid’s), before moving to the former Roy’s Park Bistro location, learning every station including 24-hour room service and pastry. He then went to the flagship restaurant in Hawaii Kai where he trained further under Chef/Founder Roy Yamaguchi, Corporate Chef/Partner Gordon Hopkins and Corporate Chef Hawaii Jacqueline Lau. Chef Ronnie went on to become Sous Chef at Roy’s Poipu Bar & Grill on Kauai, then Executive Chef at Roy’s Hawaii Kai after fulfilling an opportunity as the Executive Chef at Chez Michel in Honolulu.
After a proven record of successful and distinguished accomplishments, Chef Ronnie has chosen to hang his hat at Tiki’s Grill & Bar, steering this favorite destination for locals and visitors alike to a higher level of dining and excellence. Chef Ronnie, who believes in the farm-to-table movement, brings in island fresh produce, breads, local grass-fed beef and locally caught or raised fish every week. His delicious signature items and dinner specials that fuse Hawaiian/Pacific Island with American cuisine are the result of his dedication to the craft and cooking with locally grown and raised food.
A familiar face in Hawaii’s culinary scene, Chef Ronnie is a frequent guest on “Hawaiian Grown TV” and regularly represents Tiki’s at charitable events. An effective and motivational trainer from both the front and back of the house, Chef Ronnie continues to be inspired by working with the best chefs in the world.

Team Tikis goes to the finals and Takes Second out of 21 Teams!
Tiki's is in the finals!
The 13th annual Duke's OceanFest features a variety of ocean sports that were close to Duke Kahanamoku's heart, including Longboard Surfing, Paddleboard Racing, Swimming, Tandem Surfing, Surf Polo, Beach Volleyball, and Stand-Up Paddling. The events will be held throughout Waikiki from August 16-24, 2014.
Come Cheer on Team Tiki's at the first Red Bull Party Wave
NOON Tomorrow Sunday July 13, the Red Bull Party Wave will bring teams together to showcase the “most ingenious, innovative and downright wacky surfing crafts” at Queen’s Beach in Waikiki. Surfers, thrill-seekers and creative types.
Pregame warm ups for fans start at Tiki's Grill & Bar at 10:30am and then we walk over to Queens Beach!
Come see what our Tiki's gang came up with!
The Red Bull Flugtag event is watched by millions ever year, but this year, the energy drink company is hosting a special event with a Hawaiian twist a week from tomorrow on July 13.
The inaugural Red Bull Party Wave will be a surf competition featuring 12 teams. The teams will be building homemade vessels that they’ll use to catch a wave at world famous Queen’s Beach.
Similar to Red Bull’s Soapbox Race and Flugtag competitions, the Red Bull Party Wave will gather 18 teams who have all worked to build a craft from eco-friendly materials that float and don’t use any type of external energy source (including sails).
Competitors will be judged on the following criteria:
» Craft creativity
» Team showmanship
» Wave performance
Along with building something that will survive the surf, teams are also expected to trick out their creations (and themselves) and perform a skit on the beach prior to going in the water.
Two-time ASP World Champion Carissa Moore, world-class waterman Kainoa McGee and surf photographer Zak Noyle will judge the crews on craft creativity, team showmanship and wave performance.
The winners of the Red Bull Party Wave will receive a hand-carved trophy and a trip for the entire team to the Red Bull Air Race in Las Vegas and a hand-carved trophy.
