You have to put pineapple chunks in coconut pancakes, just like
pizza. Everyone knows that.

Macaroni or spaghetti is good in rock style pancakes, if you add
some papaya and hawaiian shoyu soy sauce.

On my rock, we are very special people, so we dress up this old
boring polynesian dish by adding a few shrimp and slices of jewish
kosher pastrami. Some folks add german liver cheese.

We serve it up with a large slice of watermelon and a tall frosty
glass of crystal palace.
