So get this my brother sends me this....
"Hey man have you guys ever been to the **** **** in ******? It’s a Polynesian Dive Bar kind of place."

My brother should know better really.

And we have been to it but it's a very pretty often called a "Chic" bar.
It has a few tiki.

BUT this is what I was scared of all along.
If a new "chic" tiki bar is said to be "a Polynesian Dive Bar" then what category does Mai Kai now fall into, Run down?
Is Hale Kahiki a dump to the newbies now?

A Polynesian Dive Bar is more my speed by the way.

Is this why new tiki mugs out sell the old classic tiki mugs from actual tiki bars of old?
Those old dirty Hoffman Pottery mugs from the Kahiki.

Bring on the "chicy" mugs!
