This whole course is using common expressions in Hawai'i that people outside of Hawai'i would not automatically know. Plate lunch is one of those expressions. It is a plate of food that you would buy at a cheap eats type of restaurant. So not only are you learning Hawaiian language, you are also learning a bit about the way Hawai'i residents speak English, too.

I enjoyed this prompt. "Lunch" is not a required response. [Plate][food thing][Chinese] makes no reference to lunch. It is simply a Chinese food plate.
