Frommer's Review

The "home of the 1-pound laulau" is quite the local hangout, a coffee/saimin shop with a few tables outdoors and a bustling business indoors. Taro and taro leaves from Waipio Valley are featured in the popular Hawaiian plate, but there are other local specialties: saimin, miso-saimin, taro-corned-beef hash, chicken yakitori, burgers, and their famous fried rice. The "Kanak Atak" is a 1-pound lau and includes kalua pig, lomi salmon, pickled onions, haupia, rice, and poi, all for $17. Habitués make a beeline for the counter, where breakfast is served all day.
