THE TOP TEN Paradise "Lost"
Rob Kendt

The stars of "Lost" on their favorite Hawaiian haunts

The actors on the hit ABC TV series "Lost" are anything but: With the show now in its third season, they certainly know their way around the island of Oahu, the 600-square-mile pleasure spot where "Lost" is shot. In fact, most of the cast resides there more or less full-time.

But is it a dream come true to live in a place most people think of as a vacation destination, or can it be too much of a good thing?

“It’s sort of surreal,” confesses Yunjin Kim, who plays the show’s preternaturally alert Sun Kwon. “When I get time off, I go back to New York, because after driving to work every day, I want to just walk and walk.”...

DISAGREE?

Giovanni's Shrimp Truck, Kahuku

Josh insists that visitors to the North Shore town of Kahuku, not far from the set, must sample the garlic-drenched seafood plates served from a battered white truck bearing the name Giovanni’s Shrimp, with the emphasis on the garlic. “Be prepared,” he said.

DISAGREE?

Indigo, Honolulu

Indigo, one of Honolulu’s most well-known great restaurants, has been a favorite haunt of "Lost" cast members. Like many of the town’s most prominent eateries, the menu, prepared by chef Glenn Chu, is a mix of Asian and European specialties. For more information: www.indigo-hawaii.com

DISAGREE?

Michel's, Honolulu

More than one "Lost" cast member singled out Michel’s as the ideal choice for a romantic dinner. You can see why: Tuxedo-clad waiters serve classic French cuisine in front of oceanfront views you won’t see in France. For more information: www.michelshawaii.com

DISAGREE?

Nuuanu Pali Lookout, Oahu

Emilie de Ravin recommends a scenic drive along the Pali Highway. And one of the don’t-miss stops along the way is Nuuanu Pali Lookout, which overlooks the 985-foot cliffs of the Koolau Mountain Range. Just remember to wear a windbreaker -- the winds there are notoriously strong. For more information: www.hawaiiweb.com/oahu/sites_to_see/pali_lookout.htm

DISAGREE?

Haleiwa, North Shore

Though many of the actors on "Lost" live along Oahu’s touristy southeastern side, the series is shot on the island’s more laid-back North Shore. Among the sleepy burghs in this neck of the rainforest cited as a worthwhile stop by Emile is the artsy-craftsy surf town of Haleiwa. For more information: www.haleiwamainstreet.com

DISAGREE?

Turtle Bay Resort, North Shore

The North Shore isn’t all surf towns and flip-flops. For a luxury destination, the Turtle Bay Resort is prime real estate. Its posh banquet rooms have also been the place where "Lost" cast and crew have gathered to celebrate the release of season DVDs. For more information: www.turtlebayresort.com

DISAGREE?

Hoku's, Honolulu

Don’t confuse Hy’s Steak House with your average red-meat franchise. Designed to resemble an English mansion and staffed by tuxedoed waiters, Hy’s evokes an old-school colonial vibe with its Broiler Room, at the center of which is a large copper cauldron that serves as an open stove fueled by native Hawaiian kiawe wood.

DISAGREE?

Kahala Resort, Honolulu

Located on the grounds of the luxurious Kahala Hotel and Resort, Hoku’s puts “island classics” through the fusion filter. To wit: Signature dishes include slow-braised Kahuku pork belly, pancetta-crusted onaga and salt-crusted rack of Wisconsin lamb. For more information: www.kahalaresort.com

DISAGREE?

Kahala Spa

Also at the Kahala, and also a favorite of Yunjim, is its full-service spa, where treatments include massages, salt scrubs, full-body wraps like the “volcanic mud envelopment” and -- Yunjin’s favorite -- the Hawaiian massage known as lomilomi, done with a hot-stone rubdown.
