#Kurt Lesmerises

With a colorful lion dance and rows upon rows of food, Mākena Beach & Golf Resort Chinese New Year dinner features traditional dishes from an authentic source. And you may want to enjoy the events and buffets here while you can, with big changes planned for the resort.

In what resort leaders call a “well-deserved promotion,” Kurt Lesmerises has moved up from Chef de Cuisine to Executive Chef at Mākena Beach & Golf Resort. He will now oversee all the culinary and banquet programs.
