All Things Maui
Maui Restaurants
It's a local necessity! A Hawaii classic of excess calories, carbs, and tastiness. Your traditional plate lunch consists of two scoops of rice, one scoop of macaroni salad, and at least one meat dish -- beef teriyaki? pork cutlet? hamburger pattie and gravy? breaded mahi? You choose -- there are lots of options. Some restaurants will let you substitute a green salad for the macaroni. Others might include a few extra side dishes. Most places will serve your meal on a plate if you are going to eat-in, but if you ask for take-out you can get your meal-to-go in a styrofoam box with fork or chopsticks (your choice) -- perfect for taking to the beach or park so you can dine in the open. A plate lunch works perfectly well for dinner too -- think of it as Hawaii comfort food.
