Thanks for the plug. I caught wind of this and was going to do a post myself on the subject. I'm on the fence when it comes to rags like The Wall Street Journal doing subjects close to my heart. Could be good...could be bad. Just a heads up...The link you posted to my Tiki posts is broken. There is a word right before the HTTP: that has to be taken out of the address. I always like it when Monica and you post Tiki stuff! THANKS AGAIN! Brian Hey Pam.

One of my main missions was to drink at some good old tiki bars leftover from the 50s & 60s - sadly I was not successful. The hotel across the street from us had a new tiki bar that was quite nice, served our MaiTai's & Pina Colada's in tiki mugs or coconuts! We searched the web, asked locals etc and nobody could direct us to a vintage place. I'm hoping they make a come-back all around - we have been in the process of transitioning our 1950s diner style family room area into a 1950s diner/tiki area. Our next project is to create a thatched style awning over the breakfast bar area between the kitchen and family room. I had also thought that I would find a good 'Tiki Bar' sign in Waikiki and other tiki-esq must-haves but came home pretty empty handed - our Tiki's Grill tiki mugs are about it - but Waikiki was a blast!
