L ocal-style get-togethers are par for the course here in Hawaii, and kamaaina have been safely finding ways to celebrate differently. From drive-thru commemora-
tions for birthdays, baby showers, anniversaries, graduation parties and more, this past year has seen families around the state alter the way they mark life’s major milestones.
Coming up is graduation season, and though festivities might look a little different this year, A Catered Experience always makes it easy for families to celebrate with great food and exceptional service.
“We also have so many different bento options now,” shares general manager Ron Hattori. “We have Hawaiian, local-style, we do ethnic, there’s a lot of variety of bentos. And they can also customize to what they want.”
All you have to do is check out the options online at aca- teredexperience.com and call the coordinators at 677-7744 to customize the menu that’s perfect for you and your family.
