A12 Hood River News, Wednesday, January 28, 2015 Photos by Kirby Neumann-Rea HOOD RIVER Hostel owner Lorena Lowell in one of the dormitories, where sheets and tow- els are provided, and Ahi’s Ohana owner Mark Whitehead, in the kitchen he leases at the hostel. HR Hostel, Ahi’s host open house Hood River Hostel opens next month on Clearwater Lane, off West Cascade, for individual guests or groups. Owner Lorena Lowell and chef Mark Whitehead of Ahi’s Ohaha Catering are working together to provide a variety of shared or separate event, meal and ac- commodation services at the hostel. The Hostel hosts an open house Fri- day from 6:30 to 9 p.m., to help introduce the business. The event is free, though there is a cash bar for specialty martinis and other drinks. The facility formerly was Bambino’s Learning Center, also operated by Low- ell. Former classrooms have been trans- formed into lodging space, with new toi- let and shower facilities replacing the toddler-sized original fixtures. The hostel provides male- and female- shared rooms, a family room, and a pri- vate single, with rates starting at $40 per person. It offers dining (self-provided or catered by Ahi’s) and business space with Wifi. The hostel has meeting room space for up to 350 people. Whitehead spent the last 10 years as chef at Cornerstone Cuisine, at Hood River Hotel, before developing Ahi’s during 2014. At the hostel he prepares Hawaiian-influenced food for catered events, and can do meals for any num- ber of hostel guests, who can be seated in the large dining room or the expan- sive north-facing deck with its view of Mt. Adams. Whitehead leases the kitchen from Lowell and together they can cater wed- dings, meetings, reunions or other events on- or off-site. Ahi’s has weddings of up to 250 guests booked for the sum- mer. Whitehead can also cater smaller events at the hostel or off-site, including pre-ordered lunches to a business or home. Ahi’s also plans a pop-up brunch at the hostel from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Feb. 8; start with the chef ’s table for $10, and add ala carte entrees. ■ Ahi’s Ohana, on Facebook and 541- 399-1299 ■ Hood River Hostel: 541-806-8525, wwwhoodriverhostel.com Lease a new 2015 Tundra Double Cab SR5 5.7L V8 4X4 for $349 a month for 24 months with $2,050 down and $3,049 due at signing.
