Chef Elaine Rothermel believes everyone should eat better so when she designed her menu for AK's Cafe, she included choices that are healthy options - low in sugar, salt and fat, good for your heart and good for diabetics. But, don't think because they are healthy they are tasteless. She is a marvelously creative chef, so everything that comes out of her kitchen is bursting with flavor and except for seeing the little red heart on the side of the various offerings, you would never believe they actually were healthy. But with her use of spices and fresh ingredients she creates a Caesar Salad with Blackened Ono that is fabulous as well as a great Thai Chicken Wrap - both good for you. There are also choices for those who prefer the sugar, fat and salt, so you can still get a great cheeseburger and add on Parmesan Garlic Fries, even a Crispy Spicy Chicken Sandwich with garlic aioli or a delicious BBQ pulled pork sandwich with chips. There is a full bar and Happy Hour runs between 5 and 6 pm with specials on the great pupu menu (appetizers). AK's Café is open Tues. to Fri. for lunch from 11 am to 2 pm and dinner from 5 pm to 9 pm; Sat. dinner only from 5 to 9 pm, closed on Sun. and Mon.
