Aloha Everybody!

Dr. Z suggested a gathering here at Hale Hawaii on 04.26.13... He and Sabu live a stone's throw from the place, and it was high time the tiki crowd came out experience this overlooked tiki gem... Apparently, the hours are a bit unusual, so it's hard to co-ordinate any sort of gathering there... weekdays (Monday-Friday, 4pm to when they feel like closing, which could be any time between 8 and 10pm) But go if you can!!!

Here's the best pix I took of our evening there... They do not do the place justice... I can't believe someplace so tiki has gone so undocumented for so long...

Sign with first bullet point removed (it said "open daily", but it no longer is!)

The entrance, actually open!

A classic bridge, over which one crosses to enter tiki paradise, leaving the real world behind...

A tiki guarding the entrance

The bar, with an awesome outrigger/lamp

Tiki lamps over the bar

Tiki by the bar

How cool is this? A phone in it's own little tiki hut!

So many more details I can't describe... come and check out this place, it's incredible!
