2012 Hale Aina Awards Nominations

This year, we're doing things a little differently...

The balloting process for the 2012 Hale Aina Awards is now a two-step process where we compile a list of nominees now through May 31.

Then, in the August issue of HONOLULU and online at HONOLULUMagazine.com, we will have a ballot with finalists determined by these nominations.

You can begin recognizing the restaurants you consider the best below. When voting, we ask you to only consider the past year of dining experiences you've had.

Results will be reviewed by the HONOLULU Magazine Editorial team, who will then select the top finalists in each category.

The official 2012 Hale Aina Ballot will appear in the August 2011 issue of HONOLULU Magazine and online at honolulumagazine.com. To receive an announcement of when balloting will begin, be sure to sign-up for the HONOLULU E-List.

Mahalo for your nominations!
