Hawaiian Grown TV - Wong's Taro Leaf Farm - People's Cafe - Segment 2

Marked by a bright red neon sign that flashes in the corner of your eye as you roll by on Pali Highway, this pleasant spot is relatively roomy, with a dozen or so yellow booths and spotlessly clean tables. The welcoming staffers wear bright green T-shirts advertising "Lava Rock — 2 scoop rice, laulau covered with stew gravy and small lomi salmon" — but this combo isn't on the menu. Several Hawaiian plate combos are, from $6.95 for minis to $11.25 for a full spread. Salted meats are a specialty, including saltmeat with watercress ($6); salt butterfish ($6.80); and fried salted butterfish ($6.55). The saltmeat with watercress is a sort of salt-water soup, with a large piece of fork-tender beef and emerald watercress floating in clear broth. The laulau and kalua were both delicious and the poi serving generous, but the teri beef, another specialty, lacked flavor. An odd side on some combos is kim chee.
