Plate lunch

The plate lunch (Hawaiian: pā mea ʻai) is a quintessentially Hawaiian meal, roughly analogous to Southern U.S. meat-and-threes. However, 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). A plate lunch with more than one entrée is often called a "mixed plate".
