Tiki Time at Chicago Vic's! - General Tiki

I went for the first time on Friday night and having read the reviews that talked about its "nautical" theme, disapointedly thought "oh well, I guess that's progress" So I was elated to get out of the cab to see not only a large (6ft?) tiki in front of the Palmer House Hilton (home of the Vic) but also a large banner proclaiming "Its Tiki Time 6 nights a week at the newly renovated Trader Vic's" . And people, the sign did not lie. Its totally South Seas, and looks like a cross between the London Vics and the Atlanta Vics. Its beautiful. Just thought I'd share. P.S. I'm going back tonight - I just can't stay away! -Aloha.
