pupu platter
Tiki bar sampler
A pupu platter is an assortment of appetizers served on a single large plate, typically at American Chinese or Polynesian restaurants.
The spread usually includes items like spare ribs, chicken wings, egg rolls, and fried shrimp, often arranged around a small hibachi for cooking or warming.
From Hawaiian *pūpū*, meaning appetizer or snack.
