Hiya all, glad to see the responses from you. The story about your family is wonderful...and wouldn't it be something if your grandparents did hang out at Young's? I'm not sure how long the cafeteria has been there, but it is very '70s. I did want to clarify that the Tiki portion of the restaurant is in the back...and it is NOT a bar, for Young's does not serve alcohol. I did remember, and I believe I am correct, that there are faux fish tanks in the walls in each booth with tropical fish inside. Maybe my memory is a little hazy, but my description of the joint in my original post is right on the money. I did check my Tiki Road Trip book last night, and Young's is not listed. Is there an updated version coming out where I can contact the author about submitting pix when I return to Young's? As previously said, Tiki in West Virginia is a rare occurance that would take the skills of X-Files' Scully and Muldaur to figure out the how/why this happened :wink:
