It's rare for me to share articles from other outlets—this one is *fantastic*. I'm particularly happy to see Jennifer 8. Lee quoted in this article; her work, particularly her movie "The Search for General Tso," has inspired me to wonder about the potential role of Chinese family associations in the Polynesian/Chinese restaurant style prevalent in the U.S. Northeast. I'm happy to hear Chinese voices chime in on Tiki's history, more, more!
Here's my list of towns most in need of some quality tiki. Did I miss a town you think is ready for a great tiki bar?
