Okay, so it may not be full blown “tiki”, but the place already has that great retro-cocktail feel. And I personally do not expect more than a “rumpus-room, 50’s basement tiki” feel, not the old NYC Hawaiian Room or Luau 400. And as those of you who live in the tri-state area already know… we can’t be too picky. So, this B&T guy is gonna check it out for himself and I expect the natives (NYC’ers, a VERY dangerous tribe!) to do so as well. Link to the NYC event: Marion's Kahiki Tribute - Aug. 19 thru Sept. 7 - NYC I will check this out. The Pontani Sisters are great. I saw them there last year.
