Freddy's and Manono Mini Mart are in opperation together. Freddy's is the restaurant portion which is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Most of the restaurant is closed until dinner time. The prices are a little high but the portions are large and can last you two meals. They've got good breakfast foods, most of them local favorites including spam, yes spam! Remember, it's popular here.

I used to hear a lot about a well known place specializing in cooking many different items with spam. My memory was that it is in or around the financial district of H.
Any specifics, or has it closed?
http://www.chowhound.com/topics/258943I was asked by Cathy of my little kitchen about Hawaii and Spam®. Well, Hawaii is the largest consumer of Spam® in the US, gobbling up a whopping 7 million cans annually! In fact, Hawaii is so well associated with Spam® that Hormel even introduced a limited edition "Hawaii" can about a year ago. See for yourself.

Spamburgers, Spam nuggets, Spam Spaghetti, Caesar salad with Spam, Spam and eggs: The menu at the Spamjam restaurant in Manila is straight out of the Monty Python sketch. "Spam is always on my mind", says the owner.

my brother once crafted a turkey shape out of spam for a thanksgiving feast! (That is the truth!) It is a great source of laughter for my baby boomer siblings and I!
Thanks for the great question! It was fun, even though I have not eaten at an all Spam place.
best wishes,
