Very beautiful.

Thatching of building exterior almost complete.

I like that, "extensive menu of 5 to 6 tiki drinks." Guess they have never been to Tiki Ti

Very vexing. Foundation, perennially ranked in Top Ten USA Tiki Bars, is five miles from Wauwatiki. I am petite. So. Only one drink until prohibited BAC. Am still working my way through Foundation drink menu.

The article was not written by Lori Fredrich, with whom I have been conversing for past year. Lucky Joe's Tiki Room on south side of Milwaukee only listed six tiki drinks and two tiki bowls. (Also fifteen Lucky Joe drinks which were tikicentric.) Rachel Minske is newly assigned.

Nothing of previously mentioned rum club. There are USA prefectures with blue law. Purchase bottle of alcohol. Bartender writes name on bottle. For the rest of evening, pay for set ups (bucket of ice and soft drink mixers). Wisconsin has no blue law; however, Wauwatiki patrons have option of purchasing rum — which is marked and kept behind bar. Tiki drinks require more than set ups. There are three liquor stores in neighborhood; Ray's Wine And Spirits, one mile west of Wauwatiki, has extensive rum selection.

Cigarette smoking banned since July 2010. Detrimental especially to shot-and-a-beer open-at-6:00am joints.

Also puzzling is food menu. Within few minutes walking distance is Chinese Pagoda (old school Chinese restaurant more than sixty years), two Mekong Delta restaurants and Ono Kine Grindz (Hawai'ian delicatessen). Not to mention numerous American restaurants and bars which serve food.

Wauwatiki owners have operating bars for many years for the business acumen. It will be interesting.
