Formica all the way and always packed for breakfast, Dani's is the pancake palace of Lihue. Pancakes include banana, pineapple, papaya, and buttermilk, plus there's sweet-bread French toast and kalua-pig omelets. Regulars know that fried rice is offered on Thursday only and that the papaya hot cakes are always a deal. At lunch, Hawaiian specials -- laulau, kalua pig, lomi salmon, and beef stew in various combinations -- dominate the otherwise standard American menu of fried foods and sandwiches.
