Just an update on the timeline - I found a 1964 article that mentioned the chef of the "old Black Pearl restaurant" working at a new place, so it looks like the Black pearl may have not lasted too long and have already been gone by 1964.

Dang, how I would love to see some good pictures of that self-made decor, and of the Kumalaes!

This is really great stuff. Witch Doctor's den is an almost perfect "tiki" lounge name since it is all about exotica rather than polynesian. So if was Kali was from Montana, was he from Kali-spell? Sorry, I couldn't resist.
