To coincide with the celebration, Zippy’s allows diners to hit the jackpot with Spaghetti and Chicken Mixed Plate for just $6.99 at fast-food counters and $7.99 in dine-in restaurants (special prices available through Sept. 30). The family favorite includes spaghetti with meat sauce, fried chicken, macaroni salad (corn served at dine-in restaurants) and garlic bread.
As a means of showing support for Hawaii United Okinawa Association and its annual Okinawan Festival — which unfortunately was canceled due to the recent hurricane warnings — Zippy’s is rolling out special items (available through Sept. 30 from 10:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.) inspired by favorites that normally would be sold at the festival.
Shoyu Pork ($10.75 fast food, $12.35 dine-in restaurant)
Diners may dig in to Shoyu Pork ($10.75 at fast food counters, $12.35 at dine-in restaurants) with boneless, cubed pork slowly cooked in a sweet soy sauce marinade and served with rice and macaroni salad (corn served in the restaurant). The popular Zip Dog ($8 fast food, $9 dine-in restaurant) is composed of Zippy’s chili, hotdog, shoyu pork and tossed greens all wrapped in a flour tortilla. With each Shoyu Pork plate and Zip Dog sold, 25 cents will be donated to Hawaii Okinawa Association.
Zippy’s also is offering a special Kokua Pac ($8.08 fast food, $9.30 dine-in restaurant). This popular Kokua Pac includes Korean chicken, Portuguese sausage, teriyaki hotdog and Spam over rice.
