I hope the box is fun in the end.
But then it will only be as good as the efforts put into it.

Here are some shots from around Kahiki land.

The large Moai that was in front of the Kahiki.

Here Mr. tiki is with another statue from the Kahiki.

Had thought that Kientz worked on the Giant Statue of King Gambrinus too, but this may not be true.
Philip E. Kientz even drew the image of “the German beer guy” for Plank’s restaurant in German Village
Mr. Kientz also designed the horse head on the Rolling Rock label.

And this Mr. Tiki is what we got in place of the Kahiki ... Walgreens.
Not a fair trade in my book.
Check out those awesome Ohio clouds in the sky.

It is said that the eggroll factory is what killed the Kahiki, as the focus went more towards making eggrolls than the restaurant side of things.
As you can, see they even changed the Kahiki font - one would guess to divorce themselves from the old Kahiki a bit.
Here's the eggroll factory.
