That's beautiful, Quickiki!!!

I'm with Sven. And I'm happy to have any tiki bars at all. The huge discussions about differing details don't interest me much, because fundamentally the one thing I REALLY like in a bar or restaurant is finely-aged atmosphere, and a new bar by definition cannot have that. So if the decor's pretty and they serve decent drinks and I'm surrounded by good friends, I will by default be happy.

I do agree that the Kona needs a sign...PRONTO.

I drove by it last night and could see no sign of life. I finally peered at the door...it was slitted a little open...I could dimly see light peeking out...so I said to myself "ok, all's well."

But they literally looked closed. That CAN'T be good for business!! At least put a sandwich-board or a nice friendly Tiki outside.

Mugwise, those cheap Libbey products are pretty, darn it! I dig the glazes. I like what the Conga's got goin' on with their mugs and bowls. If they can do it, I'm sure anybody can. Heck, if Benihana can do it...:lol:

Interesting thread. And by the way. I explore a lot of online forums from time to time, and TC is BY FARRRRR the most civil of them all. It is actually troll-free, near as I can tell. Coming back here after time spent perusing, say, http://www.femalefirst.co.uk, is like returning to sanity after an extended stay in Bedlam.
