Aloha all,

I'm all over attending a Tiki event at the Waldorf. I've always wanted to check it out, but didn't know how to get into the joint!

I'm over in Victoria, but if anyone is interested in the event, I could always lend out my guest room and we could all head over together. Victoria is a great place to check out, and up by the ferry over to the mainland is the old Trader Vic's from Vancouver. A few years back someone had it barged over to the island. I'm not sure exactly where it's hiding, but have always wanted to do a little treasure hunting so to speak.

I had a peek through the windows of Lum's a couple of weeks ago, what a scummy looking joint! Definitely something to not make a trip out for. I'll keep you posted if it re-opens or sports anything even remotely Tiki.

At least 10 years ago there was a fantastic Restaurant in Victoria called the Kon Tiki. My parents told me a bit about it, but I haven't been able to find any information on it yet. Anyone heard of the place?
