  • Epic 3-hour long dinner featuring indigenous flavors prepared by a very experienced chef with gorgeous views. This wasn't even having the tasting menu. A splurge. Yes, worth it. Why? You really are invited to "experience" the food at Kai. The staff are very formally trained (which can seem theatrical), but really when you consider the atmosphere, which features local beautiful arts & crafts as well as probably the best sunset views in the area, the flavors and presentation of the food (practically perfect), the slightly stiff staff presentations can be forgiven. Plus, you can dress up! (but don't under-do it). Part of the fun going into this dinner was the fact that my husband and I hadn't read anything about the restaurant, knew absolutely nothing about anything, but decided to go because we were staying at the resort and were there for a special occasion anyway. They also had availability when we wanted to eat there and managed a reservation the night before for 5:45 PM (we were there until 8:30 PM). Boy, were we in for a surprise! We each ordered an item from the three courses: Birth, Beginning, and Journey. For a total of 6 dishes between the two of us we were well fed for the price of about two of the 5-course meals; but because we went a la carte, we had a little more control over the selection, had more to share between the two of us, and were able to pass on the dessert (really unnecessary). I can't get too detailed on each food item, because the menu is always changing. But I will say that the husband and I were pretty much blown away by every selection. The portions were large in terms of fancy restaurants; so shareable at every level (birth, beginning, and journey), but it was really fun to share between the two of us. The presentation of the food, particularly the items from Birth and Beginning, was gorgeous. The preparation of the food was just about perfect in terms of flavor complexity and techniques. I was worried that the Journey would be disappointing because everything else was just unstoppable, but the meats were cooked exactly to our specifications. If you're curious of the types of foods offered here, let me reiterate that the menu changes.. but some of the items included on our menu were foie gras, escargot, fry bread (so good), roasted vegetables, local cheeses, lobster, sheep, NY strip steak, Big Eye Tuna, Scallops, Duck, Tribal Buffalo, Elk Loin, Lamb; and techniques included molecular gastronomy, french... In addition, the amuse bouche and intermezzo were a complimentary inclusion to our a la carte selection.
