Q: I'm taking my grandson to Hawaii: Oahu, Mauii and Hawaii. I can't afford the extra expensive restaurants. Where can we eat and still have good food?
A: On the island of Maui, Da Kitchen serves popular local, hawaiian and american food--large servings at reasonable prices. Da Kitchen is near the airport at 425 Koloa St in the city of Kahului. On the Big Island of Hawaii, Ken's House of Pancakes is open 24 hours a day and also serves local, hawaiian and american food--again large portions at reasonable prices. The pride themselves with the spirit of Aloha and has been there for years. Ken's House of Pancakes is near the hotels in Hilo on 1730 Kamehameha Avenue. On the island of Oahu, you have choices of Ige's Kitchen and 19th puka in Aiea, Nancy's Kitchen in Waipio, Haleiwa Joe's on the famous north shore of Oahu, Mac 24/7 in Prince Kuhio Hotel and the restaurant chain called Zippy's throughout the island. There are several different restaurants at the shopping centers around Oahu. From Pearlridge, Ala Moana, Windward Mall, Mililani Town Center and Kapolei Marketplace. All are accessible either through Yahoo Search or through their friends at G**gle. :) Aloha!
