Eat, Drink and Have Fun at the Luau
In old Hawaii, the luau was a great feast given to honor royalty, foreign dignitaries, and to celebrate weddings, christenings, and birthdays.
Traditionally, luaus would last for days and included plates piled high with food, good drink, and much singing and dancing.
Guests sat on woven mats on the ground and looked upon a long table decorated generously with leaves and flowers.
Poi (made from taro root), roasted pig, and chicken baked in coconut milk were just some of the local delicacies you’d find on the luau table. Guests traditionally ate with their fingers.
Today’s luau’s may be much shorter in length, but are just as lavish and fun as the old days. Hawaii has many luaus so you’re bound to catch at least one, or maybe two.
So, throw on your comfy Hawaiian clothes and get ready to eat, drink, and mix with a variety of happy people at the next luau – Aloha style.
