The City and County of Hono­lulu has chosen L&L Hawaiian Barbecue to operate food concessions at Ala Moana Beach Park, beginning with the stand near Magic Island.

The stand is open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. but will expand its hours to open at 6 a.m. beginning Saturday.
L&L also will open the second concession stand near the Ewa end of the park by the end of the summer, following renovations.

In addition to traditional plate lunch choices, the beach concessions will offer L&L’s more healthful options including brown rice and tossed salad. Additionally, the company will offer food in party-size portions for gatherings at the park.

“We are looking forward to partnering with the City and County of Hono­lulu to afford more options for users of one of Oahu’s premier beach parks,” L&L President and CEO Eddie Flores said in a statement.
