Aloha…Hawaiian dream debuts in Dalston
O 58
ffering a deliciously different gastronomic adventure in the form of New Hawaiian cuisine, Pond Dalston Restaurant has
just made its debut in a former Victorian warehouse in the centre of Dalston. Pond Dalston showcases the very best
of New Hawaiian Cuisine, a style which draws on Hawaii’s central Pacific location, fusing the food of nearby countries with local traditions and ingredients. Byron Knight, owner of Pond Dalston
describes it as “The fine dining blend of traditional Hawaiian food, the best European cooking techniques and dishes from Hawaii’s main immigrant communi- ties – Chinese, Japanese and Filipino.” “I spent a lot of time producing Hawaiian
food in California, as well as two years or so in Hawaii - it’s primarily about a differ- ent way of treating ingredients,” he told Premier Construction. He continues, “Everything we do at Pond
Dalston is based on the Hawaiian word Aloha – which means hello, goodbye, love for your brother, sister, partner and community – and love for your planet. As such, our menu will remain as local as possible, ever changing with the seasons, presenting the best of land, sea and soil that this country has to offer. “Cooking in Hawaii has developed, ma-
tured and blossomed over the last few years to create this new exciting style of food. Drawing on the food that immi- grants from around the Pacific brought

to Hawaii, chefs combined these flavours with their own local styles and ingredients to make something unique. New Hawaiian Cuisine is more than just a combination of flavours; it is about respecting the source, the ingredients, the preparation, and the love of eating together.” The restaurant was created through the refurbishment and conversion of
the
ground floor of a Victorian former ware- house, starting with a bare shell internally and creating a large dining room, a lounge gallery and bar area, and a kitchen. The scheme was project managed
by Byron Knight who engaged all the sub contractors, and was designed by Alexander Mulligan of Alexander Mulligan. com.
