I'll definately drive up for the opening and pack plenty of Hodad's secret hangover cure for the day(s) after! I am sooooo jelous! I'd briefly discussed partnering with the former owner of Guava Beach in San Diego to completely Tikify his baja-style Cantina about seven years ago. We'd taken some baby steps with Grog Logs behind the bar, Tiki mugs for regulars waiting for them on the shelves, discussions with resident MB carvers and a plan to mosaic the gas fireplace on the west wall into a fire-breathing Tiki guardian a la Kahiki, but it all fell apart when my friend embraced an opportunity to become a "porn king" ...(don't ask). Since I couldn't do it alone I watched sadly as two subsequent owners later the place has become a Red Bull fueled sports bar.
