The HUGE slices of Spam scattered throughout didn’t help with this. In fact, the primary flavor profiles here were salt and black pepper. Back in those days, I had the extreme privilege of being able to go to Maui or the Big Island at least once a year with my family. When I was a kid, I LOVED going to Ken’s House of Pancakes with my family whenever we visited Hilo. Learning that Mrs. Island Miler has never been, I made it a point to get here during our last trip to the area.

The employees were taken aback by the sudden change of administration, but all were offered the chance to maintain their current positions at Ken’s. With new bosses came fresh modifications to an already booming industry. The Chings decided to convert the Tapa Room to incorporate more seating for diners.

Ambiance + Service

In contrast to the omelet, the fried noodles were a complete disappointment. While the noodles retained a nice al dente texture, they were quite wet/oily. Worse, though, is that the entire dish was incredibly salty.

Staff required to disinfect surfaces between visits,

I wanted to branch out and try something different, opting for the fried noodles. As far as service goes, we went during the after-lunch lull. There weren’t that many employees around, so it took a while for us to get seated and whatnot despite the restaurant being empty.

Ken’s House of Pancakes Closes for Maintenance - Big Island Now

Destination Hilo’s flagship “Hawaiian Greetings Program” provides music, entertainment, and networking services to thousands of visitors arriving at Hilo Pier and in Downtown Hilo. In 1990, there were discussions of the possibility of putting the well-known eatery up for sale. It was on a golf course in Honolulu where Lindberg Ching discovered this information. It just so happened that one of his golfing buddies was also Bonnie Twitchell’s realtor. Realizing that this was an opportunity that he could not pass up, he and his wife, Frances Ching, made the decision to purchase the iconic restaurant. He then enlisted his daughter, Debra Ching-Maiava and Ric Maiava, to move to Hilo and manage the budding business.

Both are $20 today, and all omelets come with your choice of rice or hashbrowns PLUS pancakes or toast. You can also get cottage cheese, tomatoes, or pineapple in place of the pancakes/toast. Overall, I’m glad we paid Ken’s House of Pancakes a visit.

The menu for Ken's House of Pancakes may have changed since the last user update. Sirved does not guarantee prices or the availability of menu items. Ken’s House of Pancakes opened its doors in 1971 under the joint ownership of Ken Pruitt and Bonnie Twitchell. It became the first, and only 24-hour business on the East-side of the Big Island. Success soon followed the opening, with the appeal of being able to sit down and eat at any time of day or night!

We walked into Ken’s House of Pancakes and instantly felt the small-town diner experience wash over us like the waves in Hilo Bay. Classic coffee cups with Ken’s logo splashed on the side, massive stacks of pancakes, and plates of the loco moco sat on tables full of people enjoying their morning. The large restaurant serves up local food and local culture. With daily specials and warm waitresses, you will feel exactly like you are in a Hawaiian country town.

Also aiding in the success of the restaurant was the attached Tapa Room Cocktail Lounge, allowing adults to unwind with a tasty cocktail before, during, and after dinner. My other complaints with the fried noodles were more personal, with the largest complaint here being the use of green bell peppers. Who the hell puts green pepper in fried noodles?! I also wasn’t a fan of the celery or carrots in here. In my opinion, fried noodles can have onion, cabbage, and maybe bean sprouts. All other vegetables in local-style fried noodles are an abomination.

They also put a new roof on the building and increased the menu dramatically. Eventually, the Ken’s logo, and the roof and road signs also got a modernized update. If you’re staying in Hilo, it’s pretty hard to miss Ken’s House of Pancakes. They’re at the intersection of Mamaloha Highway/Hawai’i Belt Road, Kamehameha Ave, and Banyan Drive. Efforts are focused on improving quality of life for residents by contributing to a healthy social and economic culture.

It was nice to check the place out again – it’s been at least 20 years since I’ve last been – and to introduce it to Mrs. Island Miler. Sadly, I feel like the quality has diminished a little here, though the cuisine is far better than the stuff we had at our hotel. However, there are more exciting options in Hilo nowadays, so I wouldn’t automatically return here.

It can be pretty jarring if you’ve never been in a place like this. However, what caught me off-guard (I guess I never noticed as a kid) is that the restaurant is open-air – there’s no a/c here. I suppose this wasn’t as big an issue 30 years ago when our weather was cooler, but it gets pretty hot nowadays, as was the case during our visit. Nowadays, Ken’s House of Pancakes is still owned by the Ching Family.

Popular Dinner,

Trips to Hilo often included one or more visits to Ken’s House of Pancakes for brunch, with their tasty omelets, fluffy pancakes, and decadent coconut syrup. It was the perfect start to a day, which would usually include a visit to a black sand beach or adventures in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. During Mrs. Island Miler’s inaugural visit to Ken’s House of Pancakes, she went with the Really Real Snow Crab Omelette with rice and pancakes.

Coffee,

I’d probably stick with the omelets and pancakes if I do come back, though. This is the place everyone goes when the bars close, when they get kicked out of a closing store, or if they’re doing late night studying sessions. It’s right on the corner of two main roads so it gets a ton of traffic and is pretty much always busy. If you’re craving a lot of diner food and it’s going to be a late night, this is where tourists or locals alike find themselves.

Ken’s Specialty Sandwiches

It wasn’t quite as good as I remember, but that could be due to my now different taste and the rose-tinted glasses effect. There are still chunks of snow crab leg meat in there, along with smaller strands of meat, and I like that the omelet, while fully cooked, wasn’t overdone. The green onions provide a nice, light touch of freshness to what is otherwise a decadent omelet. Ken’s House of Pancakes is a dying breed of restaurant – a true old-school diner that hasn’t changed much over the years.

Big Island Bird-Watching

It is still managed by Debra and Ric, and is still pumping out delicious meals including pancakes, burgers, fries, omelets, milkshakes, and other local favorites. It’s the good food, great staff and awesome community that keeps this place going. Ken’s is, was, and will continue to be a mainstay not just in Hilo, but throughout the entire Big Island. During our conversations leading up to our trip, I learned that, despite being there several times as a kid, Mrs. Island Miler had never been to Ken’s House of Pancakes. It was also the only restaurant in Hilo (at least, in the before times) that was open 24/7 and known throughout the islands for its pancakes and omelets.

Behind them, viewers spotted a selection of books, some fresh foliage, a candle, and a decorative stone. For a solo charity appearance, Prince Harry sat in a corner of the house in front of a tall leafy plant. Much like the rest of the world, Meghan and Harry have found themselves spending more time at home than ever during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Rendition Restaurant

Inspired by 1970s Japanese city pop, Harry's House is a synth-pop, new wave, pop rock and pop-funk album. One organizer complained that the White House Correspondents' Association - which represents the hundreds of journalists who cover the president - largely has been silent since the first weeks of the war about the killings of Palestinian journalists. In May, Jay-Z and Beyoncé dropped $200 million on a compound eight miles up the coast, setting the all-time price record in the state of California. The Los Angeles Rams have the 19th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft on Thursday night. If they hold onto the pick it will be the first time the franchise has made a first round selection since they took Jared Goff No. 1 in 2016. It will also be the first time that the team has picked in the first round since Sean McVay became head coach in 2017 so you can understand why the team is kind of excited.

Commencement speakers launch boycott of USC satellite graduation ceremonies

As Sean McVay prepares to make a first-round pick in the NFL draft for the first time as a head coach, the Los Angeles Rams are setting up shop in a luxurious draft house for this weekend's event. Their home in Montecito is approximately 100 miles away from Los Angeles. In fact, the locale is incredibly popular with celebrity clientele, for its chilled atmosphere, safety, and privacy.

The couple's new neighbours in the upmarket Montecito district just outside the city, about 150km from Los Angeles, include Oprah Winfrey, Gwyneth Paltrow, Ellen DeGeneres and Ariana Grande. Harry's House has garnered many awards and nominations, including Album of the Year at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards. Numerous critics and publications listed Harry's House in their year-end ranking of the best albums of 2022, often inside the top-ten. The “Wave House” — one of the most iconic homes on the California coast — just hit the market for $49.5 million. It’s the first time the architectural gem has surfaced for sale in 36 years.

The July Hit List: Cora, Baekjeong, Ray’s Boathouse, and More

During a video call for the Invictus Games Foundation, Prince Harry sat in front of a white cabinet, and paint swatches were visible on the wall behind him. Since opening its doors in the fall of 2019, Harry’s Beach House has become a staple for excellent food, delicious libations and even better company. It is great for groups who want to enjoy a family-style meal at the communal dining table, which seats 12 and is in the center of all the action. Or cozy up by the fireplace while making some new friends and soaking in the views from the main dining room or from the patio that is open year-round (and dog-friendly, too). We’re bringing you the best of the Pacific Northwest directly from local makers, growers, and purveyors. Our menu is seafood-focused, featuring the freshest of what’s in-season and caught right here in Washington.

Property values, buyer sentiment remain strong in face of Covid-19

Beach-chic may not be a vibe that Seattle generally excels at, but this Alki Beach haunt knocks it out of the park with water views and zero kitsch. Cocktails are mandatory, especially inspired concoctions like a purple-hued gin and tonic made with butterfly pea flower. Favorites from sibling Harry’s Fine Foods make an appearance here, but roast chicken with schmaltzy croutons, fried oysters, and Dungeness crab dip all taste better by the water. Check out Harry’s boozy weekend brunch serving up mimosas, cocktails and breakfast favorites like biscuits and gravy along with a local favorite–apple cider doughnut holes. There are some great menu selections available for lunch, like the beet salad tossed with whipped goat cheese, persimmon, pistachio, chicories and sherry-shallot vinaigrette. And don’t forget a side of Harry’s fries, made with fresh potatoes, pecorino, fried sage, rosemary and 601 sauce.

Magazine, Meghan and Harry's famous neighbors include Oprah Winfrey, Tom Cruise, and Ellen DeGeneres, while Variety listed Ariana Grande and Gwyneth Paltrow as nearby residents. Also noted, "The neighborhood is renowned for its secluded hillside estates that promise the utmost privacy ... Harry and Meghan's property is situated on a private road with a lengthy driveway and large security gates." Steps away from the shores of the Puget Sound in Seattle’s Alki Beach neighborhood is Harry’s Beach House, a warm and welcoming restaurant dishing up local and seasonal fare along with photo-worthy sunsets. Owner Julian Hagood has created an indoor/outdoor, inclusive dining atmosphere with a diverse food and beverage menu. While making a surprise video appearance while introducing her longtime friend and photographer, Misan Harriman, for a TED Talk, Meghan seemed to give a small glimpse into a new space from her and Harry's Montecito home.

Accidentally came here during happy hour, the food and prices were amazing. Harry's Beach House is a great restaurant if you're spending time in West Seattle, and the coastal kind of menu is pretty customizable to any type of mood. Maybe you got up early and roll through just in time for a pile of french toast. Maybe you're in head-to-toe Ivy Park after an afternoon workout and feel like knocking back oysters on the half shell with some champagne. Or you might be yearning for a fish and chips or burger and fries moment. You can do all of that at Harry's, complete with an Alki-side location that's perfect if the weather is on your side.

Expansion of Capitol Hill’s Laid-Back Bistro Harry’s Fine Foods Opens in West Seattle

More than two dozen journalists in Gaza wrote a letter last week calling on their colleagues in Washington to boycott the dinner altogether. The night's remarks also were expected to cast a spotlight on the many journalists detained and otherwise persecuted around the globe for doing their jobs, including Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who has been imprisoned in Russia since March 2023. Kelly O'Donnell, president of the correspondents' association, opened the event by reminding the audience of the important work that journalists do but noting that the dinner is happening at "a complex moment for our nation," and in a decisive election year. Chants accused U.S. journalists of undercovering the war and misrepresenting it. "Western media we see you, and all the horrors that you hide," crowds chanted at one point.

Harry’s Beach House is an upscale seafood-focused restaurant located in the Alki Beach neighborhood of Seattle, right across the street from the Puget Sound. Harry’s Fine Foods is our flagship restaurant located in Seattle’s beloved Capitol Hill neighborhood. Fine Foods specializes in connecting guests with the Pacific Northwest’s many growers, makers, and purveyors. Protest organizers said they wanted to bring attention to the high numbers of Palestinian and other Arab journalists killed by Israel's military since the war began in October.

I wish we'd been seated inside as the covered patio was chilly...I didn't remove my coat. It debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart with 113,000 album-equivalent units, becoming the fastest-selling and best-selling album of 2022 in the country. It also debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 with 521,500 album-equivalent units, including 330,000 album sales. It debuted at number one in various other countries, including Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. Harry's House is the third studio album by English singer and songwriter Harry Styles, released on 20 May 2022 by Columbia Records and Erskine. The album was largely written and recorded during 2020 and 2021 and has been noted as Styles' most introspective work.

The home is also near their known celebrity friends, Ellen DeGeneres and, of course, Winfrey, who courted the ex-royals for years to land the interview. Their five-acre estate also boasts rose gardens, century-old olive trees, an outdoor pizza oven, pool, playground, vegetable garden, tennis court, a two-bedroom guest house, a tea house and a children’s house, Page Six previously reported. The nine-bedroom, 16-bathroom mansion is home to Harry, Meghan, their 1-year-old son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, and soon, a new daughter, who is expected this summer, Markle revealed in the interview. Meghan and Harry sat in front of their bird nest prints from Barloga Studios for the TIME100 Talks.

The property was bought by a trust that shares an address with the offices of Meghan Markle’s long-time Hollywood business manager, according to Variety. Ostin made a few changes during his stay, brightening the living spaces with shades of blue, turquoise and white to match the seaside setting. He also swapped the pebble roof for copper shingles, which have since taken on a natural patina that matches the coastal color palette. Pop star Rod Stewart bought the home in the 1970s and sold it in 1987 to record executive Mo Ostin, the Warner Bros. mogul who worked with artists such as Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Nicks. Ostin also died last year, and his family trust is handling the sale.

For Christmas 2020, Meghan and Harry released a unique portrait taken with their son, Prince Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. The trio were captured in front of a sweet playhouse, which was surrounded by a luscious green garden. During a joint video call in which the couple spoke with activist and Nobel Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, three bird nest prints were visible behind the couple's couch. During a solo appearance on America's Got Talent, Meghan gave fans a glimpse at a perfectly decorated room in the house. Behind the couch, fans spotted a Diptyque candle, a bouquet of hydrangeas, and a stack of coffee-table books.

The duchess sat in a room with a wide wall behind her, with half of the wall covered by tall white cabinets and the other half covered by thick white shelves. On the shelves were various picture frames and a long leafy plant that hung off the edge. The scallops were excellent and my partner loved his Oyster appetizer and 1/2 chicken dinner.

The couple's decor has been revealed in video calls and photos.

The duchess sat in front of a gorgeous stone fireplace, which displayed a vintage print of a bear holding the state of California. The artwork is taken from the cover of the sheet music for "I Love You, California." With glass doors that roll up, and a patio dotted with fire pits, Tukwila’s Hotel Interurban restaurant is comfortable regardless of our typical temperamental weather. Breakfast brings the sort of dishes best eaten in bed — donut French toast! — but dinner necessitates a knife and fork, with hefty plates like a 42-day dry-aged ribeye or cedar plank-roasted salmon.

With hundreds of protesters rallying against the war in Gaza outside the event and concerns over the conflict and humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the perils for journalists covering the conflict, the war hung over this year's event. If you have a loved one dealing with a mental health crisis, Dr. Zucker recommends checking in often and asking about their thoughts. She commends the new White House strategy, but says access to health care is still a huge barrier to overcome for many folks seeking mental health treatment. "Suicide affects everyone. It doesn't matter your age, race or gender," Emhoff said. "One hundred and thirty-two people die by suicide each and every day."

A bride’s fashion decisions are no longer focused on just one day

Whatever floats your boat, find it in this month’s New on Resy selections. Jumping over to the main section of the menu, the roast chicken is a Harry’s staple, available in half or whole orders and served with smashed potatoes, gribenes, schmaltzy croutons and a trio of tasty sauces. The dish is cooked to perfection and complemented well by a side of the grilled broccolini and an order of the grilled sourdough with butter and local honey. Finish off the evening with a hazelnut “afauxgato,” served frozen combining vodka, Frangelico, cold brew and coconut cream.

The highest drafted player by the organization during the McVay era, which began in January 2017, was center Steve Avila with the 36th pick last year. Given how guarded teams usually are about the draft, it's refreshing to see a franchise open its doors to turn it into a party. Cara's home went up in flames, sparking a massive response from the fire department, with the dramatic scene even caught on video. Nonetheless, Cara's parents, Charles and Pandora, had their own theory about the house fire ... Blaming a rogue powerline as the culprit, especially after a very windy night in SoCal. The 14,500sq ft, or 1,350sq m, main house sits on 7.4ac of grounds that include a pool, tennis court, tea house and children's cottage.

In addition to McVay and general manager Les Snead, the draft house will typically have celebrity guests. Eric Dickerson, Rebel Wilson, Erin Andrews and Brody Jenner were photographed at the venue in 2021. The Rams have run their draft out of a draft house since 2021, though they referred to last year's location in the San Fernando Valley as a "draft lab." The Rams unveiled the lavish mansion where they will run their draft with features that include a game room, lounge, pool and covered bar.

Biden's speech before an expected crowd of nearly 3,000 people was being followed by entertainer Colin Jost from "Saturday Night Live." Biden's motorcade Saturday took an alternate route from the White House to the Washington Hilton than in previous years, largely avoiding the crowds of demonstrators. In previous years, Biden, like most of his predecessors, has used the glitzy annual White House Correspondents' Association gala to needle media coverage of his administration and jab at political rivals, notably Republican rival Donald Trump.

Harry and Markle had previously been staying in “Madea” character actor Tyler Perry’s Los Angeles mansion before moving about an hour and a half away to Santa Barbara, California. Their estate’s proximity to Markle’s mom was ideal during a time when Markle was struggling with her mental health. The mansion is gorgeous, but viewers were most interested in the family’s chicken coop, which has a sign that reads, “Archie’s Chick Inn. Established 2021.” Harry can be seen feeding their chickens, which were rescued from a factory farm, in a recorded clip played during the interview. During a video chat with the charity Smart Works, Meghan showed another area of her Montecito home.

The current asking price is $16.5 million, but the listing agent is apparently the Rams mascot Rampage, so it's unclear how much wiggle room there is with that price. The interview was originally rumored to have been filmed at Harry and Meghan’s Montecito house, but Oprah confidante and “CBS This Morning” host Gayle King told reporters the interview was shot at “a friend’s house,” according to the Daily Mail. Their new life is anchored in their 18,000-square-foot modern house in Montecito, California, which the pair purchased for $14.65 million this summer.

Soon after moving into their new home, Meghan and Harry gave a small glimpse inside the property, which revealed some beautiful windows and well-placed foliage. In August 2020, a source told Us Weekly that, while they could've asked Prince Charles for financial help, Meghan and Harry decided to purchase their new home independently. Per Us Weekly's source, "Harry could’ve asked [Prince] Charles to contribute toward the cost of the house, but he chose not to ... Getting his dad financially involved would result in the royals having control over him. It would mean going backwards." The menu at this Beacon Hill destination showcases Middle Eastern and Mediterranean flavors built with the best Pacific Northwest ingredients. Think bright, herby dips for dragging house-made pita through, and proteins and veggies roasted and charred after a trip through the centerpiece wood-fired oven.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z just set the all-time price record in California, paying $200 million for a striking concrete compound overlooking the ocean in Malibu. Real estate records show the home has six bedrooms and seven bathrooms across 6,208 square feet. The home is a Modernist masterpiece, a reflection of the seaside setting that surrounds it. Drawing inspiration from natural forms, it boasts eccentric archways, rounded decks and walls of glass overlooking the ocean. Inside, a sunken conversation pit is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling fireplace under whitewashed beams. Before you get judgy and start thinking that this is just some soulless corporate promotion, you know that the decor is more than just Rams chic.

Seattle is known for its excellent seafood, and Chef John from Harry’s Beach House is no stranger to creating new specialties with locally caught ingredients. If you have asked anyone who’s visited this incredible restaurant, you’ll be convinced into ordering the Dungeness crab and scallop cakes. Bursting with flavor, this dish is an outstanding combination of two popular seafood favorites, mixed together with saffron aioli, frisee and watermelon radish. According to a preliminary investigation released Friday by the Committee to Protect Journalists, nearly 100 journalists have been killed covering the war in Gaza. Israel has defended its actions, saying it has been targeting militants. Assuming the Rams don't trade out of the first round, they will be picking on the first day of the draft for the first time since 2016 when Jared Goff was the No. 1 overall pick.

Former royals Prince Harry, 36, and Meghan Markle, 39, gave a bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey on Sunday, March 7, about why the pair stepped back from the royal limelight and moved to California. On Valentine's Day, the Sussexes revealed that they're expecting their second child. They shared the news in a beautiful photograph taken in their garden. The bird nest pictures made another appearance, but the couple's selection of books disappeared.

In a veritable sea of solid dining options, this Portland-based sushi chain’s U Village location stands out not only for its signature rolls and ultra-fresh nigiri, but also for its sustainable seafood sourcing. Though it’s hard to bypass the fish, the wagyu beef burger is a sleeper hit, and not just among the raw-fish averse. On warm evenings, there’s nothing better than a happy hour and comfort food on Oddfellows’ “secret” back patio. When the weather dips, pretend you’re sweating on the streets of Bangkok with Bai Tong’s spicy som tum and wok-licked pad see-ew. Or simply set up camp at Harry’s Beach House for grilled halibut sandwiches and Negroni spritzes on the water.
