Welcome to Sooper Secret Izakaya, where James Beard Award finalist Chef Ricky Goings creates a wildly delicious, ever-changing tasting menu that’s anything but ordinary.

For this special collaboration, we’re stepping into a different reality.

In partnership with Kuleana Rum Works - a Big Island-based distillery known for crafting world-class, additive-free rum from freshly grown sugarcane - this dinner becomes a choose-your-own pairing experience. Each of the five courses is paired with a cocktail by Art from Kuleana Rum, but with a twist: you choose your path.

With every pairing, you’ll decide between the “Red Drink” or the “Blue Drink”. Each cocktail is only described by its components (think paprika, orange, chocolate), and both are designed to complement the dish, just from opposite ends of the spectrum. Same plate, completely different cocktail experience.

This 14-seat chef’s table dinner stays true to Sooper Secret form: no set cuisine, no strict rules - just an interactive, inventive tasting shaped by the moment and a little bit of curiosity.

Seats are sooper limited. Choose wisely.

As a little something to take home, guests will also receive a gifted 3.75 ml bottle of rum.

Absolutely no substitutions. We unfortunately cannot accommodate any food allergies or dietary restrictions at this event.
