Happy Hawaiiana Humpday! Local Lingo: Da Plate lunch. The standard plate lunch consists of two scoops of white rice, macaroni salad, and an entrée. A plate lunch with more than one entrée is often called a mixed plate. Unique to Hawaii, the plate lunch is a local staple. The origin goes back to the 1880s during the plantation days when workers of different ethnic groups would share food and create these mixed plates. When on Oahu, getting a plate lunch is must if you want to get a true taste of the islands.
