That does not necessarily mean Tiki. In fact, odds are against it unless it turns out that their patrons really all want Tiki and tell them so. Then, even if they themselves find it contrary to their own desires, for the sake of growing their business, they might be amenable to tikifying them. Well...they probably won't mess with the Ponos, but they might do the Nalu Surf Bar. I wonder if the'll have SPAM on the Ponos menu? I hope they'll have two-finger poi. 8)
