“On a stick.”<\/p>\n

That was the tasty theme of the 13th annual Taste of M\u0101noa at the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at M\u0101noa<\/a> Campus Center Courtyard Thursday, October 11, and it did not disappoint.<\/p>\n

“The food is delicious, and I am glad to see how many people have turned out,” said 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa graduate student Minara Mordecai<\/strong>. “So far, it\u02bbs been the chicken satay but I have only tried two dishes so I am excited to try all of them.”<\/p>\n

An estimated 600 students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends enjoyed a menu made up of delicious dishes—beef meatball and vegetable kabob, corn cob, Thai chicken satay, shrimp tempura, smoked pork bulgogi skewers and chocolate-covered bacon\u2013on a stick. The sumptuous dishes were all created by the chefs of M\u0101noa Dining Services. <\/p>\n

“My favorite dish is probably the tempura,” said 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa student Owen Chan<\/strong>. “I think this is a really successful event. You get a taste of different cultures and food. I am a senior so it\u02bbs probably my last time. I have been to it the past four years and I really like it.”<\/p>\n

More than 2,000 dishes were served at the popular annual event, presented by the 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa Campus Center Board Activities Council<\/a> (CCBAC<\/abbr>) in partnership with M\u0101noa Dining Services<\/a>. The goal was to get the 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa ʻohana more engaged through food.<\/p>\n

“This offers students and community members an inexpensive meal without compromising the quality of the food,” said Lexy Dennis<\/strong>, the CCBAC<\/abbr> chair who organized the event with co-lead and fellow 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa student Jordan Higuera<\/strong>. “Taste of M\u0101noa is also a platform for student performers to present their music to their peers and the public in a safe environment.”<\/p>\n

Dennis said the ultimate aim of the event each year is to offer a safe, drug- and alcohol-free evening of live music and good food for the 东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
