New restaurant opening in Pahoa tomorrow

[kalakoa]

I almost hate to point this out, but that "run down dump on the side of the highway" is quite possibly the only available commercial kitchen space (other than the ex-KFC) in lower Puna.

Perhaps he would like a nicer space, but can't afford it and/or didn't want to open in Hilo?

Also, more to the point, nobody is being forced to eat there (or work in the kitchen), if your idea of "living wage" means driving to Hilo and/or eating at McDonald's, great, go do that!
