The plate lunch (Hawaiian: pā mea ʻai) is a quintessentially Hawaiian meal, roughly analogous to Southern U.S. meat-and-threes. The combination of American and pan-Asian influence makes the plate lunch unique to Hawaii.
Standard plate lunches consist of two scoops of white rice, macaroni salad (in an American style), and an entrée (usually in a Japanese style such as chicken katsu or teriyaki).[1] A plate lunch with more than one entrée is often called a "mixed plate".
