Cheers from the Ministry of Rum - General Tiki

Really great. The place has become my local and it's gonna kill me. They have a mai tai, a navy grog and a zombie on the cocktail menu along with some originals and classics. In addition the bartenders are all very comfortable working outside the boundries of the menu (corn 'n oil, anyone?). The mai tai uses Appleton's XV and La Favorite if I remember correctly - it is really good but a little light on the orgeat for my taste. The navy grog drink is a little unusual with the use of orange, but again a very good drink. The zombie is a showstopper. It is the 1934 version and it is fantastic - and served in a tiki mug, which is a nice touch and pretty unusual for a "high-falutin" NYC cocktail joint.
