Can't wait! There are two Trader Vic's and a TV Mai Tai Lounge in Dubai. The one in the Crown Plaza was small, very old-school (similar to Atlanta)and more "locals". The one in the Jumeirah's Souk Madinat was more upscale, international and party central. It's in a resort mall and a short walk to the beach to see the Burj al Arab. The Mai Tai Lounge was modern for sure and the most worried about me taking pics. They each had Cuban bands, different! Cuban bands and the favorite drink was the Tiki Puka Puka, often served without the gardenia :( All of the staffs were really friendly and I left with parting gifts!!
