Mauna Lani, Auberge Resorts Collection welcomes Rhoda Magbitang as its new Executive Chef at CanoeHouse: What you need to know?

Mauna Lani, Auberge Resorts Collection welcomes Rhoda Magbitang as its new Executive Chef at CanoeHouse: What you need to know?

CanoeHouse at Mauna Lani, Auberge Resorts Collection announces Rhoda Magbitang is joining the ‘ohana on August 1st, leading culinary experiences as CanoeHouse’s first woman Executive Chef.

CanoeHouse, one of Hawaii’s most legendary restaurants, will welcome the new Executive Chef Rhoda Magbitang this summer.

Born and raised in the Philippines, Chef Rhoda arrives to the Island of Hawai’i by way of Los Olivos, California, where she led as Executive Chef for The Inn at Mattei’s Tavern, Auberge Resort Collection.

Her passions for sustainability and local culture inspire her creative yet approachable take on cooking – a cleverness that earned prestigious Michelin Guide recognition for Mattei’s Tavern in 2023, just months after its opening.

Chef Rhoda’s culinary experience dates back to her childhood, when she cooked for her five siblings as part of her daily chores.

She later went on to work for world-renowned chefs including José Andrés, Suzanne Goin and Josiah Citrin, quickly establishing herself as a leader in the food and beverage industry and ascending the ranks to become Executive Chef at two of the most iconic hotels in Los Angeles: The Chateau Marmont and Petit Ermitage.

In her new role at CanoeHouse, Magbitang will carry on the restaurant’s legacy as the birthplace of Hawai’i Regional Cuisine, a major food movement in the 1990s that shifted focus to locally-sourced ingredients and cultural influences of the Hawaiian islands.

Pioneered by former CanoeHouse chef Alan Wong, and later modernized by his successor, Allen Hess, the culinary movement lives on at Mauna Lani today.

Chef Rhoda will lead CanoeHouse alongside the restaurant’s new General Manager, Stephanie Pawlikowski, who was recently promoted to the role after two years as Assistant General Manager.

Drawing from her years of fine dining experience, and a degree in pastry and food management from Johnson & Wales University, Stephanie will oversee all day-to-day operations at CanoeHouse and lead its restaurant team to design memorable dining experiences by generations of Mauna Lani guests and locals alike.

Foodies are invited to meet the CanoeHouse team this summer at the 2nd annual Mauna Lani Culinary Classic, a four-day food festival over Labor Day weekend (August 29th–September 2nd) featuring James Beard Award-winning chefs, mixologists, and sommeliers from all over the world.
