I’ve passed by this place several times thinking, one day, I’m gonna give it a try. One day finally came and I did stop, checked out the menu and thought, “no thanks, nothing really sounds that enticing or cheap enough to convince me it’s enticing,” so I left. Finally I made my way back to this place again and thought, “fuck it, let’s give it a shot.”

 

There’s a few tables to the side of the building. Grab them fast or you’ll find yourself eating in the car or taking your food home.

 

Ray was in the mood for Banana Pancakes today, $6.50. A stack came with three large fluffy pancakes topped with powdered sugar and was accommodated with three packets of syrup and some butter.

You can see big chunks of banana in the pancakes and when Ray realized he had mowed through half the pancakes without even asking me if I wanted to give it a taste, he says, “wow, these are really hitting the spot right now.” I’m so happy those pancakes are working out for you.

 

I got the breakfast special, $6.50. It came with eggs, cooked the way you like, your choice of meat, I picked polish sausage, and white or brown rice, I chose white.  If you like you could also add substitute fried rice for $1.50.  In my opinion $1.50 is a lot to pay to substitute a small about of rice. It was a nice surprise to see a piece of biscuit inside because the menu didn’t mention it. I didn’t realize until I got half way through that I was really going to finish the whole plate. Everything was really good and my plate hit the spot quite nicely just as well. I cut up my pieces of sausage and sliced up my egg and just mixed it all together with some soy sauce and pepper. I hate it when my food and eggs come out super greasy and as you can see nothing was too greasy here.

 

Overall I think I like this place. The prices are alright and the food is really good. They also have a full menu for lunch or just come and visit the market inside. It doesn’t hurt to look and there’s a ton of stuff to see. If your not hungry now, don’t worry you will be later. You can pick out premade, not frozen meals that you can cook up later. There’s lots of wine, bread and my favorite, dessert. Oh, there’s also premade salads and wraps for you healthier folks. Come, check, check, check it out.

    Should check out the Portabello Mushroom Burger plate for lunch/dinner. It’s awesome! Also, there’s some kinda Ahi steak thing that’s really good.

    This was the former Burgerland Drive-inn that had terrific burgers that you enjoyed after a a day at Queen’s Surf. Hated to see that go but the new place sure has some good-looking food. Wish I tried it when I was home.

    Yeah, DHG’s prices are on the higher side, but by the looks of your food, it looks like you get what you pay for. The food looks really good! Especially those banana pancakes. Looks moist. I remember trying their baby back ribs a while ago, and it was pretty good.

    Nate is right. Its former tenant, Burgerland was a gem. A true greasy spoon that had the best local style, char-grilled teriyaki burgers.

    I really like that Monsarrat area below Diamond Head. There’s a certain charm about it.
