tkijackapole,

Currently there are no "tiki" places. You would probably do better on ebay for long ago souvenirs. Some antique shops on Magazine St or Decatur towards Esplanade may have some items. And the flea markets. There are 2 Polynesian named bars....

K J's on the Blvd
And Polynesian Joes on Magazine St.

My great grandfather operated/owned the Absinthe House in the late 1920's. There is a plaque of some kind with that info in the bar.
