One question...are there local artists carving and selling tikis in the marketplace areas ?
Also...are the prices on tapa cheaper there than here?

on oahu: fake "artists" trying to pass off mass produced tikis as their own at the Marketplace. they 'carve' a log into matchsticks or, my favorite, the guy who just bonks the cement with a piece of bamboo to create the sounds of carving.
found a real tiki artist at the swap meet ~ our very own Gecko
didnt see any tapas.

found nothing on kauai, but really didnt expect to!
