For additional Tiki-food fun, you can always hop on to YouTube and search for "Alton Brown Good Eats Down and Out in Paradise" and you should get his 1-hour special of Tiki food. (I posted the links in another topic I started.)

The premise was that AB "shipwrecked" and had to make "Good Eats" with whatever he found on the tropical island where he had washed up. Sweet & sour pork, coconut shrimp, etc. are all there.

PS For even more fun, check out the article in Saveur Magazine on Trader Vic's food which I just posted in the Tiki Food Links thread.

My personal theory why TV was able to weather the Tiki Dark Ages has to do with the fact the food is actually pretty good. A lot of places I could name closed because all they had were drinks.
