Which Trader Vic's are you planning to visit, and what time? There are three in the Bay Area. I was just thinking about popping into the one in Emeryville tonight for a cocktail or two and would love to meet up with you there if that's the same one you were planning on.

Wow, welcome. Not sure if we're going to be able to make it. What time were you planning on going to FI? Are you in for only one day?
Recommendations: Vic's in the city (San Francisco) is recommended for dinner. The have a $25 prix fixed 3 course special right now that's quite tasty. The places I would hit up here in this order, beyond FI of course, are the Tonga Room (Fairmont hotel, SF), Trader Vics (SF), Conga Lounge in Oakland, and the Kona Club in Oakland. If you only have time for TV and FI, you're good as well. Definitely try the Voodoo Priestess while at FI. Everything's really top notch on the menu.

Well finally had a chance to reply. First JenTiki, sorry we missed you plane was late and didn't get in till 7:45.
As for FI, WOW what a place! Glad we have family there so we can visit more often. Martin thanks a million for the hospitality you have a fine establishment and we look forward to seeing you again, soon I hope.
Finally Coco Loco, a pleasure meeting you and your significant other (sorry I'm terrible with names) we ended up back at FI on Sat and had another great time, also pretty sure we had all the concoctions you guys recommended were looking forward to seeing you guys hopefully at the Tiki Crawl!
Again for those of you who haven't been FI is a must visit tiki bar, Martin truly has a passion for tiki and it shows! my only disappointment was we forgot our camera!
Mauruuru to all and hope to see you all again soon!

Wow this place looks awesome...thanks for the pictures. I am going to check it out when I am off for New Year's week. I've got a craving for a Krakatoa.

Drat! The Krakatoa slipped off the menu a coupla months ago. 
If you bring your own iced coffee, perhaps we can convince Martiki to whip one up!

Mai Tai and I are probably out tonight. Parents and family friends in town visiting and all...
Hinano_Paul and Mrs. Lurker, sorry to miss visiting with you...but I'm sure we'll see you down South sometime in the next few months. Have a great time at FI!
Of course, disclaimer here: All this may change at our whim and discretion...we may NEED a drink as the evening progresses and therefore have to sneak away from the events here. If ya see us, we'll be there.  Have a great time guys!
