Yes it was Boris. Check these out! I found an old postcard on flickr from the Mauna Loa era with some great photos. This place really had it all going on.

From the signage, Tiki torches and flaming clam-shell drink welcoming you..

To the A-frame entrance flanked by Tikis..

To the entrance bridge with more Tikis..

To the Tiki bar, love those seldom seen red Chinese tiles and all of the Tiki art.

The thoroughness of the decor make me wonder if Bob and Leroy didn't have a hand in this one. Or maybe a set designer from a nearby studio? Still an amazing new find in the heart of Tiki Revival land this late in the game.
