13 O‘ahu Brunch Spots You Need to Try
"The first true brunch spot in Windward O‘ahu, Over Easy (same owners as Easy Que) has refined breakfast with its truly unique dishes. While the cozy restaurant serves crispy-edge pancakes and a solid fried egg sandwich, it specializes in dishes you won’t find anywhere else. Its French toast features sweet bread from Punalu‘u Bake Shop on Hawai‘i Island crusted in Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal and topped with an orange crème fraîche."

"Kailua, on the Windward side of Oahu, is the island’s brunch destination, with every breakfast spot offering its own twist on pancakes. Over Easy’s rendition may be the simplest, but it’s also the best—fluffy and tender with crispy edges as contrast. On the savory side, don’t miss the Kailua eggs, a take on the comforting Japanese ochazuke—tea poured over rice—but here with a bacon and cabbage broth."

A 3-day Oahu itinerary for the first-time visitor
"Down the road, at Shark’s Cove, you’ll want to walk in its tidepools and snorkel its fairly shallow depths, before stopping at world-famous Waimea Bay. Choose a beach to lounge at for the rest of the day, before exploring Haleiwa Town and getting an early dinner at Haleiwa Beach House. Instead of ending your day on the North Shore here, consider driving back to the Polynesian Cultural Center for its evening show, Ha: Breath of Life, featuring over 100 Polynesian dancers—one of the best shows in Hawaii. Believe us, it may be out of the way, but it’s worth it."
