Kanemitsu's Bakery & Restaurant
You came to Hawaii for the sun-drenched beaches and brilliant blue waters, so it is not without some puzzled hesitation that you step into the dark alley on a deserted side street. It’s long after sunset. Less that two hours from midnight. A local man clutching a small paper bag passes by, nodding hello, but exchanging no words. Nothing need be said, really. You’re here for the same thing… to fulfill a craving. Because once you’ve had it, you will be back.
Tip:
Try Molokai hot bread without toppings at first. Savor the unique flavor and texture. If you want to step it up, you can order any one topping – or get “the works,” with a little bit of everything. Kanemitsu's Bakery & Restaurant

In the day, when the front of the restaurant is open, you’ll also find an incredible taro lavosh as well as other locally-inspired bread flavors including apricot-pineapple and coconut. And for a delicious and simple lunch, the hamburgers and egg-salad sandwiches are popular and inexpensive.
