I've never eaten at the ones in Burwood or Ringwood...nor Geelong (but that one obviously has no tiki theme outside)....although, ironically, I've had lunch with the guy that OWNS the Smorgy's chain....at a Chinese restaurant, of all things! Melbourne's STARVING for a good tiki bar/gallery, I think. Outre doesn't really do much for me anymore....one display case (and lack of "atmosphere") doesn't really fill my void, although I haven't been there in a good 2 months so things may have improved! Good luck anyway Helen. A heap of pics and info BEFORE it opens would be appreciated, I'm sure!
