Wahoo's new customer-named menu items

SANTA ANA Calif. The Wahoo’s Fish Taco chain on Monday unveiled the results of a contest launched earlier this year to name three new menu items.

The new items include the Power Chopper Salad, a traditional chopped salad with the addition of beans, rice and salsa; the Wafu Bowl, a tofu combination platter with rice and beans; and the Baja-ladas Platter, a Baja roll served with enchilada sauce and cheese with rice and beans.

The winning contributors to the “Taste It. Name It. Win It.” contest were Rosa Hopper of San Diego, Shelly Mayo of Brentwood, Calif., and Colleen Rose of La Verne, Calif. The three winners will receive free food from Wahoo's for a year.

 

“The response from our customers was tremendous. We received thousands of entries and were astounded and delighted at the creativity,” said Wing Lam, co-founder and partner in Wahoo’s. “We want to thank everyone that participated. It was a difficult decision to pick three winners. Every entry was original and it was exciting to review all the innovative ideas, several of which had our entire Wahoo’s team laughing.”

Based in Santa Ana, the 55-unit Wahoo’s Fish Taco brand is known for its eclectic Mexican-Brazilian-Asian menu and surfer theme. The chain has units in California, Colorado, Texas and Hawaii.
