Once the LARGEST restaurant in America, it still ranks as the largest Polynesian Restaurant. Branded scorpion bowls, coconuts, glassware, china, S&P shakers, swizzles, and even RUM (yes, they had/have a house Kowloon Rum). If you're lucky, you can find these things in the New England thrift stores.....if you can beat Tikisgrl there (She scores everything!!) Seating for something like 2200, a 50+ foot A-frame & giant Ku at the entrance....dine in individual huts around the lagoon, or in front of an erupting volcano, or on a ship, or in a lava cave, or just at the sunken bar with the carved totems supporting the thatched roof. And its still open! :wink: .... and now has Tiki Farm making its signature mugs. http://www.kowloonrestaurant.com/ Its in the top half of my top 10....but I might be east-coast biased.
