Koko Head Cafe
No. 7The one to order
The Egg Handwich
Top Chef's Lee Anne Wong opened this Kaimukī brunch spot to give Honolulu the breakfast she missed from New York. The Egg Handwich is built from local farm eggs and produce.
Where we found it: Islands, the best breakfast sandwich spots in the US (Jun 2026) · The Daily Meal, the best breakfast sandwich in every state (Mar 2026)
Make it at home
The bodega bacon, egg and cheese
15 min · 2. The one every corner store in New York makes a thousand times a morning. The trick is cheese melted into the egg, not laid on top.
