The outside is actually quite similar to the illustration on the menu, the PU PU menu does more justice ( color) as it was clearly copied from it. The "god" head was smaller and as far as I can recall there was one, and there were no torches. The bamboo is correct. The Tiki mug with "Blue Hawaii" on it may possibly be from the same era as the menu, when the family ran it. In '77 the mugs were more generic looking and not as heavy and were for sale. The building is gone now. I worked in the kithen and also did various things for Tom ( gopher, etc.) and I used to eat with the Asian crew before work out back in a fenced in utility area that was a break area with a picnic table and it all was really quite cool!
