Ward Village in Honolulu is running its third annual Taste of Ward food promotion, good news for local diners looking for deals through the end of September.

• More than 25 restaurants are offering special dishes and exclusive deals during the event.
• Nori Bar, a small hand-roll spot with 16 bar seats, is serving a premium seafood platter available only from September 16 to 30.
• The platter is a departure from the usual made-to-order hand rolls, featuring wagyu, oyster shooters, caviar-topped fish, and seared nigiri.
• Parking is free in the Whole Foods garage, and takeout boxes are available alongside dine-in.

Outlook: The promotion wraps up September 30, so the special menus disappear after next week.
