Eggs 'n Things (Oahu)
food: 4/5
experience: 4/5
overall: 4/5
A bit of a wait at the height of breakfast time but definitely worth it.
Had to treat myself to at least one nice Hawaiian breakfast during our stay in Oahu. Our hostess could have had a little more enthusiasm but our waitress more than made up for it. We got the Hawaiian delight, which was a stuffed papaya, and the chicken mango sausages and eggs. Chicken mango, what a delectable combo. They serve the dishes separately which is kind of annoying because ideally you don't want to finish yours before the other person starts, but you also don't want your food to get cold.
The fruit side came a lot faster (obv). The papaya was nice and fresh. Came with blueberries, strawberries, granola and whip, all good. They sure pile on the whipped cream here, shoot. Every plate that was coming out of the kitchen had a mountain. Ours were no different.
The portions are huge. Two eggs looked more like four, and they came with cheese. The sausages were full-length wieners, not those mini breakfast sausages you get at Denny's. And the pancakes were about two meals by themselves.
All the food was good but not outstanding. The namesake eggs tasted like they were out of a carton, which is kinda lame for "Eggs 'n Things", and the sausages in spite of their delicious contents were just meh. The buttermilk pancakes were fluffy and delicious though, hard to screw that up.
You definitely get what you pay for here. I can see why this chain is popular. As usual, my mouth remained watering reminiscing over all the carb bombs being served for the rest of the day. To be tried in another lifetime, where calories don't matter.
