HONOLULU, HI — December 18, 2009 - Bill Comstock, general manager for Outrigger Reef on the Beach, is pleased to introduce two key personnel in the hotel's new food & beverage department -- Harold Beltran, executive chef and Dietrich Chillous, food and beverage manager.

In his position, Harold Beltran is responsible for all food preparation, production and control for Kani Ka Pila Grille, the hotel's banquet facilities, special events and room service operations. Chef Beltran is a 12-year food operation veteran having prepared a wide variety of unique appetizers, soups, entrees, sauces, specialty items and desserts. He is proficient in numerous cooking techniques and cuisines with talent for working with ingredients from various countries around the world.

Prior to joining Outrigger, Chef Beltran held key positions at several award winning restaurants in Honolulu including Ryan's Grill and Palomino Euro Bistro. Most recently, he was the executive chef for BluWater Grill, an upscale Pacific Rim cuisine restaurant. Chef Beltran received his education and certification from Kapiolani Health System Food Service. He is also a very active member of the community providing services through various charities such as Hawaii Kai Retirement Community, Adult Friends For Youth, Muscular Dystrophy Association, and March of Dimes just to name a few.

Dietrich Chillous joins the Outrigger Reef on the Beach in the newly-created position of food and beverage manager. As such, he is responsible for the hotel's overall food & beverage operations including the day to day food and bar operations at Kani Ka Pila Grille, as well as the hotel's room service, catering, banquet functions and special events operations.

Other career highlights include food & beverage positions at the Waialae Country Club, Royal Hawaiian Cruises, Alana Waikiki Hotel, and Padovani's Bistro & Wine Bar. In 1999, he returned to the then renamed Radisson Waikiki Prince Kuhio to serve as the banquet and beverage manager before becoming the food & beverage manager for the Honolulu Country Club, a position he most recently held prior to joining the Outrigger Reef on the Beach.
