Taste of Honolulu to be replaced

Advertiser Staff

Honolulu's popular Taste of Honolulu fundraiser will be replaced by a similar event known as The Flavors of Honolulu to be sponsored by a nonprofit organization called Abilities Unlimited, it was announced today.

The format for the event, which is held yearly on the City Hall grounds, will remain similar, with a selection of popular restaurants participating. It will also feature handicrafts and "everything that represents Hawai'i," said former City Councilman John Henry Felix, chairman of the board of directors for Abilities Unlimited.

The event has been a fundraiser for Easter Seals.
