Eggs ‘n Things is widely known as the pioneer of the pancake boom.
Since there are many locations internationally, including in Japan, you might have already visited one.
In Hawaii, there are a total of four locations: two in Waikiki, one in Ala Moana, and one in Ko Olina (West Coast area).
The menus are roughly the same at all locations, but if you are visiting Hawaii, you should definitely enjoy the authentic taste!
In fact, the pancake mix used here is different from the one used in the Japanese locations, and there are many elements you can only experience in Hawaii, such as the unique atmosphere and original menu items.
Recommended Menu Items at Eggs ‘n Things
Eggs ‘n Things is famous for pancakes, but it was originally an egg dish specialty shop.
The omelets and Eggs Benedict are excellent, and the other menu items are all delicious too!
The menu is very extensive, but this time I would like to introduce the most recommended items.
#1 Most Popular Menu: Pancakes
The biggest feature of Eggs ‘n Things pancakes is the fluffy whipped cream.
Many of you may have seen it before, but the whipped cream tower is about 10cm (4 inches) high!
However, it is surprisingly light and not too rich, so the volume is manageable even for one person.
By the way, there are various types of pancakes, but the number one popular item is the Strawberry Whip Cream Pancakes.
Hawaii’s strawberries have just the right amount of sweet and sour flavor, making them the best accent for the cream!
There is also a "Whip Cream Pancake Sampler" where you can experience strawberry, blueberry, and banana flavors all at once.
Local Standard Menu: Omelet
Next to pancakes, the most popular item is the omelet!
Before the pancake boom, this omelet was the top recommendation at Eggs ‘n Things.
There are many types of omelets, but I especially recommend the Kalua Pork Omelet for a taste of Hawaii.
It is a traditional Hawaiian dish involving steamed pork, and it goes very well with eggs.
You can choose rice, potatoes, or pancakes as a side dish.
Irresistible Soft-Boiled Eggs Benedict
Whenever I visit Eggs ‘n Things, I am always surprised by the high order rate of Eggs Benedict.
Looking around the tables, so many people are eating Eggs Benedict.
It is a standard Hawaiian breakfast, but the combination of the soft-boiled egg from an egg specialty shop and the special sauce is amazing!
Omelets are good too, but if you had to choose just one egg dish, I recommend this one.
There are various toppings available, so please find your favorite.
Popular Hawaiian Breakfast: Fried Rice
Fried rice is a popular menu item in Hawaii, so you see it at many restaurants.
Eggs ‘n Things’ fried rice is hearty and rich!
Since many egg dishes are light, this is recommended for those who want a substantial meal other than pancakes.
It is a hidden gem that never misses the mark, so please give it a try.
Secretly Popular Chewy Waffles
Actually, locals in Hawaii order these waffles just as much as pancakes!
You might imagine waffles being a bit hard, but Eggs ‘n Things’ waffles are soft and chewy.
Pancakes are delicious, but I feel the waffles are just as good.
They are not as sweet as they look and are easy to eat, so try choosing waffles if you prefer.
American Style Ribeye Steak
The Ribeye Steak is one of the hidden popular menu items.
It is a plate made with Hawaiian beef, and the seasoning of the meat is excellent!
Even though it is a steak, it does not have the heavy volume found at other steakhouses, so you can order it casually.
By the way, steak at Eggs ‘n Things also comes with eggs.
Choose your preferred cooking style from over-easy, sunny-side up, or scrambled when ordering.
Popular Hawaiian Gourmet: Garlic Shrimp
Garlic shrimp is a standard Hawaiian gourmet dish.
The seasoning is close to the authentic North Shore style and has a punchy flavor, so it goes very well with rice!
It might not be the priority menu item at Eggs ‘n Things, but I think it falls into the category of quite delicious within the Honolulu area.
This is recommended for those who want to eat garlic shrimp without going all the way to the North Shore.
