Geez, Pappy! I went to Worcester State, (the college not the mental hospital), in the early 80's & I thought I had hit every bar in town but I just don't remember this place. Shortly thereafter, my wife-to-be & I became regulars at the Wind Tiki on Park Ave., to the point where the host called us by name. They had great food, great drinks & a great atmosphere. I wasn't the Tiki Nut that I am now, but I was already fascinated with everything mid-century & I remember it being like a smaller Kowloon. It was very well taken care of, right up until the time it became Sokura Tokyo. It was always busy & I was surprised to find out about the change. I'd still give anything for info about the Mauna Kai in Marlboro! That was my hometown Tiki joint & I'd be pickled tink if I could get ahold of something from that place. Oh, well, once I finish my time machine, I can check out all these places again!
