The scuttlebug is all good and very exciting news. The owner of the LA Trader Vics sat with us and told us all about it, and is a serious tikiphile, and it appears that there will be no stone (tiki) unturned when it comes to the TIPSY factor in this Trader Vics. 
Can't wait for this !

I'm very encouraged by everything he told us. He mentioned that he was going to get some original decor from Vic's grandson that has been in storage.

I hope that the Downtown Trader Vics gets some of the old Staff/Bartenders
from the BH location.
I went to the Trader Vics lounge a few times, and got a big white guy, or a lady, and they did not make the Navy Grogs correctly.

Has the decline in your book sales forced you to get a job with Calasia? How's your team coming along?
