A central feature of the Luau is the potluck soup. Villagers bring different ingredients to prepare this soup for the [[Governor]], who tastes and judges it. The soup-tasting begins by talking to Mayor [[Lewis]].
Depending upon the [[Foraging#Quality Ratios|type and quality]] of the ingredients you supply for the soup, there will be different reactions from the Governor and Mayor Lewis. The outcome may increase or reduce friendship points with all villagers.
The Luau ends automatically after the Governor tastes the soup.
