I just saw this magazine article for the Whisknladle Bistro & Bar in La Jolla featuring their Zombie drink--I'm curious if anyone has been there? It's not a tiki bar by any means, but the drink looks good!

In the same magazine -Pacific San Diego-there is also a spread on Mr. Tiki's Mai Tai Lounge--
Check out page 38 (for Mr Tiki) and page 40 for the Whisknladle Zombie

Whisknladle’s Ian Ward has earned a reputation for being one of San
Diego’s finest mixologists thanks to his inventiveness and the fact that, like
the restaurant’s culinary staff, he creates everything—including a diverse
line of infused liquors—from scratch. Available only at the bar and served
in a glass shaped like a monkey skull, Ward’s tart and tempting Zombie
combines home-made tamarind-vanilla syrup with fresh-squeezed apricot
and lemon juices, añejo rum, brandy and a float of every tender’s best
fiery friend, 151 rum.
