DYNE

Experiences

Choose how you want to gather.

Every DYNE experience is built the same way — a conversation first, then a menu written for your table. What changes is the format: an intimate dinner at home, a celebration for a hundred, a banana-leaf feast, or an afternoon cooking side by side.

01

Private Dining

An intimate chef-driven dinner brought directly to your table.

Chef Dayne cooks in your kitchen — a vacation rental in Kona, a home on the Kohala Coast, a villa on the water. Menus are built entirely around your table: what you love, what's in season, what the fishermen and farmers brought in that week.

  • Fully customized menu, written for your party
  • Courses cooked and plated in your kitchen
  • Service, staging and a spotless kitchen afterward
  • Ideal for anniversaries, birthdays, proposals and quiet nights in

Catering & Events

Elevated food and hospitality for celebrations and gatherings.

Small upscale catered events are DYNE's specialty — weddings, receptions, cocktail parties, corporate lunches and milestone celebrations. Large or small, the food is prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients and served with the polish of a resort kitchen.

  • Weddings, receptions and cocktail service
  • Plated dinners, stations and passed canapés
  • Corporate lunches and private celebrations
  • Coordination with your planner or venue

Kamayan

A communal Filipino feast built around food, family and connection.

Kamayan means "to eat with your hands." A long table is lined with banana leaves and covered end to end — rice, grilled fish, lechon, prawns, lumpia, fresh fruit. It isn't limited to Filipino dishes; the spread is customized to your preference. No plates, no formality, just everyone leaning in together.

  • Communal banana-leaf table service
  • Customizable spread, Filipino-rooted or blended
  • Built for families, reunions and groups
  • Guided by Chef Dayne through the meal

Cooking Experiences

Hands-on classes and culinary experiences with Chef Dayne.

Chef Dayne loves teaching almost as much as cooking. An intimate class for two, or a larger session with friends and family — you cook alongside him, learn the technique behind the dish, then sit down and eat what you made together.

  • Intimate classes for two, or group sessions
  • Technique-led and fully hands-on
  • Menu chosen with you in advance
  • Ends with a meal at the table
