Haaa, that likeness is funny! Thanks for your expert zoom-ins AGAIN, DC. It made me notice that Dug had quite a collection of liquor decanters on his back bar shelves, he obviously was a collector of them first, and then got into designing them - very Tiki revival-like!

Themed liquor decanters are so much a symbol of the times of Tiki and its generation, there is a mind-boggling array of them out there. There used to be great liquor store in Las Vegas that used to carry them...now they are a thing of the past. They are such "bad taste", nobody's wife would allow them around the house! :lol: ...maybe I should do a book about them.

P.S.: Also just noticed, behind chef George on the left, an almost empty bottle of Dagger rum. Obviously an ingredient in the Blue Mai Tai. That Blue Mai Tai concept is a scary one, we don't even accept red ones! :)
