Some more info sent to me by kind strangers who share the midwest love of tiki. I keep stashed in my hotmail for just such an occasion as this....

From Jim Rees:

"Also, next time you are in Ann Arbor, you might want to stop in at Champion
House, at Washington & Fourth Ave. No tikis but they do serve tiki drinks
in proper tiki mugs, and they even have a flaming volcano bowl."

From Logan Summer's, about Chin's:

"for the only real tiki place in the area (and possibly the state), i'd say chin's was pretty decent...with a few caveats...the service sucked--how about hiring some waitresses with a little motivation (i asked what was in the fog cutter drink and our waitress said--and i quote--i don't know, with no further explaination! also the food was mediocre, but you warned about that...but the decor was genuine. how can this place still exist in livonia of all places???

BTW, we did discover a drink that came in a tiki mug, though it was a nondescript coconut mug (not suprisingy, the drink was called "the coconut"), it is now in my ever-growing mug collection"

Hmmm, I'm not sure where the info on the Chinese place went - probably on my laptop.
I'll check today at work if I remember!
