American Samoa in the Honolulu Advertiser!

The following appeared today in the Honolulu Advertiser...

"L&L Drive-Inn has cooked up a new plate lunch special: a three pond dish with three scoops of rice, two scoops of macaroni salad, BBQ beef and a choice of BBQ chicken or chicken katsu. The dish, essentially a combination of a regular plate and a mini plate, is being rolled out at L&L restaurants statewide to celebrate the opening of the chain's first restaurant outside the United States last week in Pago Pago, American Samoa. L&L said the new restaurant attracted 1,000 customers and ran out of food six hours after opening on its first day."

I suppose this is fitting considering the local McDonalds is rumored to have the highest sales of any McDonalds in the world and the local Carls Jr. broke opening day sales records. But I'm terrified a) that there are people who can consume that much food and b) that the restaurant RAN OUT OF FOOD!

That plate sounds like the famous "garbage plate" from my home town Rochester. Mish Mash of yummy picnic-like goodness! You can google it . . . it is famous!
