If it is what I think it is...it will be amazing.
Well, I guess you, Mr Boo, have something to do with all of this.
If so, I'm sure it will be awesome.
Anticipation........

Positively thrilled! out of my mind excited. A Don the Beachcomber, just can't believe it!
Chuck, please consider, in developing the new cocktail menu, contacting Jeff Berry, who has researched, documented, and decoded drinks from Don the Beachcomber in his crucial series of books.

Been watching this develop from 3000 miles away & I got goosebumps when I read the final news. That is awesome! You guys don't know how good you've got it out there. We're fortunate to have a few decent Tiki joints around her, (Kowloon, Bali Hai, Huke Lau), but there is very little appreciation for mid-century anything. This is where the freakin Pilgrims landed, so any preservation is aimed at 200 year old buildings not 50 year old buildings. They just keep knocking down everything mid-century & putting up damn Walgreen's & BJ's Wholesale Clubs! This stuff happens so fast that, even if we united to help, we don't stand a chance. Hooray for you guys. I'm trying to figure out a way to visit SoCal in the coming year, but my wallet is fighting me all the way. When I do, I hope to meet up with a bunch of you folks! Congrats & Mahalo
