Two years after the temple was dedicated then- LDS Church apostle David O.

By 1919, the church was prominent enough in the area to build a temple in Laie. The LDS Church was established in the islands in 1850 following the Edict of Toleration promulgated by Kamehameha III, giving the underground Hawai‘i Catholic Church the right to worship, while at the same time allowing other faith traditions to begin establishing themselves. The building of the LDS Church's Laie Hawaii Temple was a key predecessor to the establishment of BYU–Hawaii. The university partners with the LDS Church-owned Polynesian Cultural Center, the largest living museum in the State of Hawaii, which employs roughly one third of the student body. A BYU-Hawaii education is less expensive than similar private universities since a large portion of tuition is funded by LDS Church tithing funds. BYU-Hawaii students are required to follow an honor code, which requires behavior in line with LDS teachings (e.g., academic honesty, adherence to dress and grooming standards, and abstinence from extramarital sex and from the consumption of drugs and alcohol). Approximately 97 percent of the university's 2,800 students are members of the LDS Church. The university is broadly organized into four colleges, and its parent organization, the Church Educational System (CES), sponsors sister schools in Utah and Idaho. The university's sole focus is on undergraduate education. In 2004, it was made a separate institution. BYU-Hawaii was founded in 1955, and became a satellite campus of Brigham Young University (BYU) in 1974. It is owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).

You can find it on the 2nd floor of the International Marketplace in Waikiki. It specializes in mochi donuts and has all kinds of mouth-watering flavors including cookies'n'cream, black sesame and green matcha. Modo Hawaii is an offshoot of Watanabe Bakery. Add in a cup of coffee and it's only $4.50. The result is a savory breakfast fit for anyone who needs to get their motor running. An unglazed mochi donut sits on a bed of cheddar cheese, a raw egg is dropped in the middle and then covered with two strips of bacon in a waffle iron.

It' a twist on the traditional egg-in-a-hole. This week, Frolic contributor Melissa Chang takes me to Modo Hawaii to try out a new breakfast delight called the waffle mochi donut.
