I always get a Navy Grog and share a Rum Giggle with my wife. Over the years, I find their menu uninspiring compared with DtB drinks. So, tell me what I should be trying when I am in TV!

Out in Los Angeles, they have the "1944" Mai Tai on the menu also, which is mixed with individual ingredients and not their normal restaurant Mai Tai mix. Other favorites are the Menehune Punch and Dr. Funk (though your milage may vary on the Dr. Funk depending on bartender, I find it inconsistent). kevin
