Several of its signature dishes have been faithfully recreated for this buffet using the original recipes:

  • Poke Nachos (Moana Surfrider recipe)
  • Hawaiian Pulehu Chicken (Moana Surfrider recipe)
  • Garlic Shrimp (Moana Surfrider recipe)
  • Hong Kong Steam Fish — Hawaiian Style (Moana Surfrider recipe)
