The ISLAND FIESTA PLATE


Anyone who comes from or who has lived in an island community within the Pacific Rim knows what I am talking about; the familiar paper plate that is loaded with many wonderful foods we grew up with and is usually served at a BBQ, a casual gathering, some special event or even at one's home. Local cuisine, as well as dishes influenced from other neighboring islands or countries is most always included, as well. Simply put, we from the islands love good chow and eat it well!!! The individual dishes that may be included are too numerous to mention; as they say, "a picture paints a thousand words", so here I will share with you a beautiful ISLAND FIESTA PLATE from a close friends' wedding reception I attended within the last year back home on Guam, which also represents the island of Palau (Belau), where they both originally are from.
