The best dining on the island was fêted at the annual ‘Ilima Awards, held at Diamond Head Theatre. Guests were treated to an awards show complete with song-and-dance numbers and a restaurant parody revue. Afterwards, the award-winning restaurants, chosen by Honolulu Star-Advertiser reader ballots, restaurant critics and DHT patrons, served up delicious bites as guests sipped fine wines, martinis and micro-brewed beers.
