Swanky, thanks so much for the offer! My business will be in Knoxville (this is where you are, yes?), but I don't have a trip scheduled yet -- it'll probably be sometime in the next couple of months though. I'll have to do some work schmoozing (which is still fun, these guys love their whiskey & bourbon like we love our rum). I was already planning on making the drive to the Omni Hut, but I had no idea the Kon Tiki Paradise Room was so close! I'll definitely make sure my trip has a couple of extra days in it. I'm looking forward to seeing the Smokies, too, they sound beautiful. I also want to go to Dollywood (hey, stop laughing). This is going to be a good trip.

Tiki Mick -- the Spectacular East Indies Room. Public places? Sam's Seafood is the nearly-official Hoiti Toiti clubhouse, of course, though I need to go back -- I've only been once, and I didn't try the drinks that time. As mentioned on the "underrated" thread, I also like Royal Hawaiian quite a bit. But, why limit yourself to OC? I don't get this invisible barrier between LA & Orange County... when I was living in Seattle, I drove 3 hours (each way!) just to go to a party at the Castaway Cove. Y'all are spoiled. :)
