Tiki Shaker posted a thread for the Bali Hai in Culver City and here is another one called the Tropic Isle. I grabbed some images of the matchbook and the menu. The menu has a really cool map that has some graphics of the Tiki art-forms of the Pacific Rim islands, would love to see a better scan of that! I think 1961Surf has the matchbook, so maybe he can post a better scan.
