Ken's House of Pancakes
For years, this legendary diner near Banyan Drive between the airport and the hotels has been a gathering place for Hilo residents and visitors. Breakfast is the main attraction: Ken's serves 11 types of pancakes, plus all kinds of fruit waffles (banana, peach) and popular omelets, like Da Bradda, teeming with meats. The menu features 180 other tasty local specialties (loco moco [meat, rice, and eggs smothered in gravy]; tripe stew; oxtail soup) and American-diner-inspired items.
