Brandomoai, Hey man...I am glad I see a little wink at me in the previous post as I wouldn't want to offend any Western Canadian Tikiphiles!!

Yeh...Tropika is a decent place. I went to the one out your way in Calgary last year and we had a good experience! Good drinks, great food and a relaxing atmosphere. It was also very cool to see the Trader Vic style drink menu (actually, a real drink menu for that case!) and Tropika using Trader Vic mugs and bowls!! (Still don't know the connection there. Everyone I ask doesn't know a thing.)There are 3 locations out here in BC and I have been to two and both were good.

This monkey bar just doesn't look like that place even tried. That's all. At the beginning of this post it seemed to have a little buzz and maybe a little possibility but it sure lost it after opening. Look at the date of the beginning of this thread (2005) and nothing else until now. Kind of a sign as well.

I did talk to a couple people who have been there and they were not impressed at all as well and I guess we can all tell for ourselves from this thread.

Anyways, Brandomoai, I am the one offended by you......coming out here to BC and practically stealing a Trader Vic stemmed glass from a local thrift store???!!! How dare you?? The nerve of you!!
