Weekend Picks – Saturday Edition

Weekend Picks just popped up in your inbox, when another amazing brunch/event/sale/cool thing shows up in Lei Chic's e-mail. Selfishly, we don't mind missing the crowds, but it does seem unfair to keep it from you. So starting today, Lei Chic will be sending you a quick round up of late picks, including all the sales, to muse over your Saturday coffee. Cheers!

Slide In
Kahala Food and Wine Festival
What:
You know, you know. You should have bought tickets earlier for that sold-out gourmet dinner at the Kahala Hotel & Resort. But there are a few spots left for other Satuday sessions: like cooking demos with superstar Chef Cindy Pawlcyn of Mustard's Grill in Napa, wine seminars and maybe even you can just sneak in for an after dinner cigar under the stars.
