A: Well Bakersfield is home to Bill Lee’s Bamboo Chopsticks, as in Bill Lee’s Bamboo Chopsticks O.M.C. Three Face Bucket Mug fame. Knowing it was still there we had to take a look, it’s more like a P.F. Chang’s now with Terra Cotta Soldiers instead of bamboo but the food was good and the Mai Tai (Kinda Fruity but finished strong.) came in a coconut mug so I was happy. In a place like this you start thinking the thrift stores must be filled with those bucket mugs right? Wrong! and now I know that if you think Tiki-Kate is going to concentrate on finding shirts while you can concentrate on finding mugs you’d be wrong, WAY WRONG! I zigged when I should of zagged and Kate finds a Trader Vic’s skull mug! :o In Bakersfield? :o I’ll go start the car. Q: Okay seriously why Bakersfield? A: If that’s not enough for you then how about the Rice Bowl sign next door to Bill Lee’s? You gotta love that. Q: You know this is Tiki Central and Not Giant Restaurant Sign Central right? A: Fine you want Tiki’s we went looking for Tiki’s ~ the Lanai Gardens has some and even though it looks like they’ve seen much better days they’re still very cool. Speaking of cool it’s like 100° out here and we’re 2 hours from home so I'll go start the car.
