Whether you’re a resident or visitor, you’ve got a really good reason to eat out in Hawaii this week.

From today through Nov. 24, more than 50 Hawaii eateries—from fine dining to uber-casual fast food places—are participating in the 6th annual Restaurant Week Hawaii, offering special menus, promotions and discounts.

It’s a weeklong celebration of Hawaii’s diverse cuisine scene, local ingredients and world-class chefs, with a portion of proceeds from the dishes you order supporting the University of Hawaii’s Culinary Institute of the Pacific at Diamond Head—the state’s first four-year culinary program. The celebration serves as a reminder that Hawaii is a top culinary destination, with its own cadre of noted chefs and unique forward-thinking cuisine trends.
