Poli-tiki does have a good collection of tiki mugs and Ryden prints on display in their basement.

Also worthwhile, is the Honolulu Restaurant in Alexandria, just outside the beltway on Telegraph Road. Nice decor and good drinks, in a small family owned and run business. Easiest way to get their is via automobile, although it is reachable via metro by walking from the yellow line's Hungtington Station.

'South Pacific' will be playing at the Arena Stage in D.C. Mid-week tickets should be relatively easy to get.

There are some good sized tiki carvings in a larger restaurant called 'Mango Mike's' on Duke Street in Alexandria, but their impact is overshadowed by the numerous beer banners and signs floating around .... the place feels more Buffet-ish than tiki-ish, and the one mai-tai they made for me was terrible.

What days are you in D.C.? I could always use another excuse to go to the Honolulu or Poli-Tiki for drinks.
