Oh the cat mug!! LOL
That was from the FOM sponsored Chicago Area Tiki Tour. It's not a regular mug at Ho Kong!!! 
It was there being given to Beth who must have ordered it back then. Beth had me photograph it. It just dawned on me she escaped my camera herself!
Anyone else take any pictures?

I thought the food was good too! The Peking Ravioli, in particular, I really liked.
The drinks were pretty strong, actually. I really enjoyed the Scorpion Bowl and the Suffering Bastard. I didn't care as much for another one I had... the Maui Maui Sour, I think it was called. It had more of an anise flavor than I was expecting.
GREAT time!

Sorry I couldn't stay long enough to see everyone but at least there is photographic evidence that I was indeed there.
I concur with the general consensus. Pretty good food (great crispy wings!), STRONG drinks, and a pretty fun little place.
This is also the place where I bought the "Scorpian Bowel" mug/bowl a few years back... just because of the way it was labeled. Still cracks me up, but then again, I have the mentality of a 12 year old.

Yea, so did we. And we go to great pains to keep that label on the bottom of the bowl intact when washing it.
Need to get back to Ho Kong more often.

Hey Rick! Sorry we missed you. The food & drink are very good, but I'm not too big on their Mai Tai (not so far removed as it is from Bob's Famous at Kahula, albeit with half the rum.)
Great seeing everyone!

Bob's gone, Page! Not to fret, though, the new guy, "Larry", makes apretty mean Mai Tai, too.

So I've heard! Perhaps we should have Larry pour us all a round in Bob's honor. Preferably soon!
