I found this description on the Internet and nothing in Tiki Road Trip or anywhere else. It was following a discussion of the Omni Hut and other places, which leads me to believe this is legit and not the mad ravings of an idiot. Anyone know anything about it?

"In the 60s-70s Nashville had the best tiki place I've ever seen called The Blue Hawaii. The front end of the parking lot was
guarded by two 35 foot tall tikis! At night they were lit with orange and
red lights and used to scare the bejeesus outta me when I was a tyke... They
had a "volcano" inside that belched dry ice fog and was also lit from the
inside with red and orange lights...It went under, sat vacant for a few
years then became a Chinese place called Golden Dragon...They tore down all
of the tiki stuff and painted the outside bright red and yellow....it was
sad.."
