It had Mike's Prime Rib & Chinese restaurant which might have had a little bit TIKI in it, the bar was nice and dark. Bad gang problems (very not TIKI) create most of the pub the city gets these days. I used to visit the giant Go-Kart track and also next door to what was probably the cities most famous institution, Plowboys Market. Plowboys had sawdust all over the floors and really great fresh produce. These places were all leveled in order to build that much needed Casino with the cool Volcano. You just can't stop the carousel of progress! Plowboys reopened some years later, moving south down the 405 freeway to a city that doesn’t have any Fountains or Valleys, even though it’s named as such. But it took a little bit of its Hawaiian Gardens roots with it. If you stop in, you'll hear soothing Hawaiian music raining down from the ceiling while shopping for some of that good produce.
