They took such good pictures of the drinks: Already we're getting a lot of visitors- even had a guy in who worked at the Mai Kai in the 70s in tonight, and whose uncle worked at DtBs in Hollywood! Also just got a call from a guy whose father was a maitre'd at the Lanai in the 60s. He told me he asked his father for 30 years for the recipe for the Sidewinder's Fang, and he would never give it to him- said it was top secret. Well, his head exploded when he saw it in the paper today. Rest assured I will continue to press these guys on future visits for more info, and will of course post here with the relevant findings.
