I'm sure the stories behind why Trader Vic's succeeded as a company while Don the Beachcomber basically just became an IP is an interesting one in itself. I wonder if they'll even licence out the "Don the Beachcomber" name to people's home bars? :wink: Anyways, I'm glad to hear that the good Don's is looking to relocate. By the time I get to LA again, they'll probably have it up and running :)
