Price Per Person: $30-$40* Blue Plate Special: Inventive, award-winning Pacific Rim cuisine. Signature items include the Dim Sum Canoe, glazed short ribs, blackened ahi. Amazing fresh seafood, roasted meats. The Scoop: Roy Yamaguchi has been a busy boy. He's risen to the upper echelon of the culinary world and shown that there's more to Hawaiian food than coconuts and poi. He hosts his own PBS show and sells cookbooks galore. He's won the James Beard Award. And his restaurant empire is expanding faster than you can say "Island-style poke." Signature items such as baby back ribs and blackened ahi have become classics and can be found on the menu at every Roy's in the country. Another portion of the menu includes original recipes by the head chef of each restaurant. Since all the chefs are proteges of Roy, you can count on getting some unforgettable Pacific Rim cuisine. The Scene: These sophisticated, high-gloss restaurants are set in cultural capitals around the country. They're popular special-occasion restaurants, though prohibitively high prices keep the masses from the door. Roy's stamp is on everything -- he even has his own wine label, which offers exclusive reds, whites and sakes. -- Lena Katz *Price Per Person includes entree, drink and dessert.
