At this point I don't really care if I will sound snobby saying this here, but all you Johnny-come-latelies with your consumerist, bourgeois attitudes of entitlement really rub me wrong. Tiki is not about stuffing your face and getting sloshed. It is about the fact that it is amazing that these original Tiki environs still exist. Years ago, when Tiki was new, the sense of amazement and humility about it was shared in the community, now it seems it is all taken for granted and measured by "The Food Channel" standards.

YEA, how DARE we effete, latte sipping bourgeois consumerists expect a decent drink or service for our 12 or 15 dollars? Why the unmitigated gall!!! I got almost a dozen PM's from TCer's who didn't want to post publicly telling me about one horrible experience at DtB's after another, Indifferent or rude service, lousy food and bad drinks. Maybe that's your idea of Tiki 'Bro, but it sure as hell isn't mine, and it wasn't Donn Beach or Vic Bergeron's idea of Tiki either. Enjoy your crappy drinks 'Bro.
