Here are a few notes from our trip last week to Delaware and the beaches of the Eastern shore... a new Chinese restaurant called Peking Garden is on Rehoboth Ave. serving many of our favorite exotic cocktails in Orchids of Hawaii mugs. Because I shamelessly begged, they sold me a rum barrel for $6.... Several curio shops are stocking tiki mugs with the name of the beach printed on them (Ocean City, Rehoboth Beach, etc.) These look like those new Mai-Kai mugs seen on e-bay... As reported earlier, there is a Fen-tiki mini-golf in Fenwick Island and a Maui Golf in Ocean City with tiki's on the course... One curio shop in Rehoboth Beach had a huge resin tiki in the window (listing for $250) and had various tiki and Hawaiiana items for sale, including Sven's book.... I found a first-editon (1947) of Trader Vic's Guide to Food & Drink in the attic of my in-laws 1880's farm house. (I'm not kidding.) This gave me an opening to suggest we add the Trader's Scorpion punch to our Independence Day festivities. As the day wore on, the reactions of the various celebrants to this potion was fairly hilarious. In fact, by the time we had drained the punch bowl the art on the old Vics menus had obtained new meaning for me :wink:
