Description:
I picked up this matchbook for the East Hawaii restaurant a while back.

It has a nice little rendering of a Tiki Toasting.

I have also seen this other matchbook on ebay a few times that has a Hawaii East restaurant located in New York that used the same logo, as well as the Hawaiian Fountain restaurant. I am assuming the same owners of all three. Sounds like quite a little Tiki empire.

The Tiki Road Trip book indicates that the Hawaii Fountain was remodeled in 2006 and striped of all its Tikis which were thrown in the dumpster.

There is also a thread for Hawaii Fountain on TC

No other info on the East Hawaii or Hawaii East locations.
