[@tosht2515]

This was very interesting and enjoyable, guys. I know very little about Polynesian cuisine other than Hawaiin. Have had plenty of Tongan and Samoan acquaintances/coworkers over the years but all made their way to the mainland via Hawaii. Lau lau (taro wrapped fish or pork) is one of my all-time favorite Hawaiian dishes so I would have been all in on the lu pulu! 😀 Surprised the potato salad was top choice for Thomas. 👍

[@ChasingaPlate]

So glad you enjoyed it Tosh! That lu pulu was wonderful. We would love to get to Hawaii one day to film. The market plate we ate in this video and the bbq plates that are offered at other Pacific Island eateries here remind me of the photos I’ve seen of bbq plates in Hawaii. It was neat filming this one- gave us more of an insight into areas of our city that we spend less time in. Can’t wait to keep exploring! Thanks for watching and commenting Tosh. Cheers, Sheena

[@tosht2515]

Yes. The market plate is very reminiscent of a Hawaiian “Plate Lunch” (protein, rice and mac salad); a southern U.S. BBQ “meat combo,” and the less known “meat and three” which is super popular in Tennessee - protein plus three sides. They thought long and hard coming up with that name, eh? 😀

[@ChasingaPlate]

Potatoe Salad,, Noodles, Rice, Fried Donut..... Carbs, Carbs, Carbs with a side of Protein if you will!!! The portion was massive very much Islanders; hospitable and make sure guests are well fed. Everything had my name all over it from the buns to the CAKES (lm all about the cake) and the yummy meal Thomas tucked into. Couldnt wait for the train to pass by though. What a great selection for this video, love watching how everything is made and appreciate that so much👍

Bring on the carbs!!! You would have loved the sweets BBB- Bertrand even does a pineapple pie cake 😍 Might have to order one me thinks! Getting to watch the sweets being made was awesome- always love getting access to the kitchens. We had a lot of fun with the team. Thanks for watching and commenting BBB, hope you have a fabulous week! Cheers, Sheena
