Spotlight shines on new chef-inspired menu
and lobby installation from local artist Kamea Hadar at completion
of theater renovation
Reading International, Inc. (NASDAQ CM: RDI) is proud to invite
the community to experience the newly reimagined Consolidated
Theatres with TITAN LUXE at the Mililani Town Center on Friday,
June 28. The completion of the renovation features a tastefully
crafted menu by Chef Santos Loo along with signature cocktails, and
the lobby will showcase a stunning installation from acclaimed
local artist Kamea Hadar. Guests may continue to enjoy the recently
renovated auditoriums with luxury recliners and reserved
seating.
“We are delighted to welcome Mililani moviegoers into this
beautiful theater, complete with all the latest amenities and
introducing an exciting new food and beverage program,” said Rod
Tengan, Consolidated Theatres division manager. “Guests can relax
in ultimate comfort, get fully immersed in an unparalleled
cinematic experience, and indulge in dinner with a movie.”
Under the direction of established chef and food stylist, Santos
Loo, elevated menu items created in the newly built kitchen will be
available, including dishes that will premiere exclusively at the
Mililani theatre location before rolling out to other Consolidated
Theatre locations such as `Ōlino and Ward. An assorted selection of
local and international wines, craft beers, and cocktails curated
by Chef Adrienne Ishizu, food and beverage manager for Consolidated
Theatres, complement the menu. Moviegoers will have the opportunity
to meet Chef Santos Loo and Chef Adrienne Ishizu throughout the
weekend launch of the menu to learn more about their inspirations
and sample new creations.
“When is the last time you went to the movies and had Belgian
waffles with fruit? How about Loco Moco? When we develop a menu, I
get excited about working with different ingredients and creating
something unexpected,” said Chef Santos Loo, a veteran of the Food
Network. “We have such a talented culinary team at Mililani,
supervised by Chef Ishizu, and we’re looking forward to the
community enjoying delicious food in a theater that has been
beautifully rendered from end-to-end.”
At the heart of the lobby, the art installation from Kamea
Hadar, co-lead director of POW! WOW! Worldwide, will honor the love
story around the Hawai’i legend of Naupaka and the beautiful
half-blooming flowers that represent a symbol of hope and eternal
love. Renowned for his work that includes large scale murals found
in cities around the world, Kamea’s piece for Consolidated makes a
striking impression, and fittingly celebrates a movie theatre chain
that has been entertaining Hawai`i for over a century. The artwork
will additionally be featured as a new design on Consolidated
Theatres gift cards, and also offered as an e-gift card online.
“This theater has been home to so many movie memories for the
community,” said Kamea. “It’s an honor to be a part of this new
space where even more families will get to come together and enjoy
an experience for generations to come.”
