Description:
I was lucky enough to pick up a menu and postcard set from The Beachcomber restaurant located in Winnipeg, Canada. There have been several posts about the sister restaurants located in Vancouver and Edmonton, but nothing under Locating Tiki for this one yet.

Lets start with the multi view postcard.

The back of the card advertising the Steak Pit and dinning in huts under the stars.

This must be the Steak Pit.

And the huts under the stars.

Check out the Tiki totems.

Another great room, looks like Leteegs hanging on the left wall.

Here are the large dinner and drink menus.

A graphic from the dinner menu that looks a lot like the hut from The Tahitian restaurant in Pasadena.

A little Tiki figure from the drink menu.

Several references in the menu to the host Jack Porter.

The location on the back of the menu.

A postcard showing the exterior of the hotel and The Beachcomber sign.

And finally a matchbook style that appears to be unique to this location.
