Damn shame, just how long was New Tiki new. It seems like not that long ago I heard of it becoming New Tiki!
Glad we're going on Saturday. The least we can do is kill off their rum inventory.

LOL! <G>
Talk about an eye opener. Never had a MT so early in the day, but after Friday nights room crawl, it might be just the hair of the dog that the doctor ordered.

There's a website? No way? Why doesn't anyone tell me these things? Seriously never thought to look.

With such a large tiki crowd coming on the 20th, they could make a real killing by offering to sell off some of their tiki inventory to interested NETTers. For example they could, let you keep some of the mugs for a few dollars more than the price of the drink. Other items in the place could small discreet tags on them so that interested persons could offer to buy item (for later pick up / shipping).
Just a thought, especially if this would help.

While I agree JW, and will suggest it to the manager, I'd like to ask everyone to not be vultures over the items at the New Tiki. Also, I believe the contents & diner-ware have already been sold off, so it may be a moot point  .
(*keep in mind that Bali Hai has Original Orchids mugs STILL IN STRAW in boxes!! Thats better than anything you'd get at New Tiki!)
Its just a shame that another one is biting it. New Tiki didnt exactly "get it", but the management liked us, and the food & drinks are pretty good. I always thought we could bring them around. We've given them some masks for the walls, and constantly bug them about more exotica in the jukebox.
Oh well. Just sad.
Last hurrah for the old girl this saturday. Be sure to tip well & spend $$. These folks are out of work in a week.
