Kapi’olani Community College and Leeward Community College Culinary Arts student finalists will compete Wednesday in the 7-Eleven Hawaii’s “On the Line” Healthy Entrée competition.

The competition will take place at the Culinary Institute of the Pacific from 10:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.

Students will give a short presentation and samples of their creations will be available. The winning three entrées will be featured at 7-Eleven Hawai‘i stores next year. Former KCC student Primo Mateo won last year’s “Bring on the Bento” competition with his Pastele stew and Gandule rice bento.
