Bringing unique and interesting events to the area, Journeyman Distillery recently hosted a one-of-a-kind Polynesian-themed dinner at its Three Oaks, Michigan location.
Presenting a menu beyond what is normally available, Executive Chef Amanda Salas and her talented team crafted a menu inspired by the vibrant flavors of Polynesia.
Highlights included succulent roasted pork loin and pulled pork, served with flavorful accompaniments like roast pineapple and Polynesian BBQ sauce. Guests could also enjoy a refreshing cold buffet featuring shrimp poke, tropical fruit salad, macaroni salad, and luau salad.
For the main course, the hot buffet featured Huli Huli chicken, Polynesian meatballs, and corn on the cob. For dessert, guests could indulge in Piña Colada panna cotta, mango lime tarts, or chocolate macadamia nut tarts.
To complete the theme, guests were also encouraged to get into the fun. Guests dressed to impress in their most colorful luau attire, adding to the festive atmosphere.
The highlight of the event was the series of contests, including the best conga line, limbo, and luau dance. Participants showcased their skills and creativity, earning cheers and applause from the enthusiastic crowd.
