What food do you serve at your tiki bar? - Tiki Drinks and Food

There are NEVER any leftovers of these - last party I didn't even get to have any, they went so quick. We also like to serve traditional cocktail-era appetizers like meatballs on toothpicks and tiny pigs-in-a-blanket. We have an old (early 70s) appetizer recipe book that's a lot of fun, and our guests always comment that they remember when their moms used to make appetizers like that. Screw health food! At a wrap party I just threw for a commercial I recently finished, we had sushi, but only because the director happens to be good at rolling his own. Otherwise it's just too expensive...
