Honolulu
A local favorite since 1950, Liliha is not far northwest of Chinatown. This old-school island bakery and diner causes a neighborhood traffic jam for its coco-puff and green-tea cream pastries. Still hungry? Grab a counter seat and order a hamburger steak or other hearty faves in Liliha’s retro coffee shop.
There's another location in Kalihi and the baked goods are sold at Macy's in Ala Moana Center.
