Hank’s Haute Dogs at the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa will debut the Lobster Dog during the resort’s annual Fourth of July celebration.

The Lobster Dog, the first exotic dog to appear at the Maui beachfront location, features made-from-scratch lobster sausage seared in butter and topped with garlic-relish aioli, lettuce, tomato and pickled takuan radish.

“Hotel guests have been asking for our Lobster Dog, and after it won best food at the Ocean Vodka charity
event in May, we had to bring them onboard!” said Henry “Hank” Adaniya. “Our fans will be so happy!”

The Ka‘anapali Beach location at Black Rock offers resort guests and beachgoers local favorites and award-winning gourmet dogs.

“It’s really gourmet fine-dining infused in a quick grab and go concept,” said Adaniya.

The Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa invites families to enjoy a day of fun at its annual Fourth of July celebration beginning at 10 a.m. They event will benefit StarWish charity, a fundraising program organized and implemented by the resort’s associates that is used primarily to provide scholarships for associates and their families. However, some of the money raised is donated to organizations such as the Visitor Industry Charity Walk, the Starwood Associate Relief Fund, and local schools and community organizations.

There will be watermelon-eating contests, a jumping castle, face painting, games, shave ice, cotton candy and popcorn for sale.

The Lucky Ducky Race is the final event and begins at the Mai Tai poolside at noon. Rubber Duckies can be purchased
throughout the event and prizes include gift certificates for hotel stays, dinners and more.

The pool bars, Cliff Dive Grill and Mai Tai Bar, will feature the new Americosmo as the Fourth of July drink of the day and will have several Aloha Hour specials.

Hank will be at Hank’s Haute Dogs as it opens at 11 a.m., and will be preparing free samples to be given out at the Lucky Ducky Race.

All events and venues are open to the public.

Hank’s Haute Dogs Maui at the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa is open seven days a week.
