  • Pu-pus delivered by little outrigger canoes, like those water-borne sushi conveyors. - The Kahiki's or LA's the Tahitian's giant Aku Fireplace in the Lounge. - The Volcano has inserts made of mixed, crushed red,orange & yellow glass that're back-lit with chase lights, giving the image of lava slowly flowing down the sides. - A greenhouse out back for growing tropical flowers and fresh tropical fruit for garnish & fresh-squeezed juices for the drinks. - A live floorshow, with a live band, MCed by King Kukulele. - The urinals in the Mens Room are a lava wall with a waterfall to flush it. - A Mai-Tai bar in the Ladies Lounge to serve them while they freshen up. - The phone booth is one of those old fashioned sit-down-&-close-the-door types, wallpapered with preserved palmfronds, with a blowfish lamp that lights up when you close the door, & "Quiet Village" plays in the background, doing a slow fade out when you pick up the phone. - A Tiki Motel out back for those that can't drive home after too many Scorpion Bowls. - Every drink has it's own special mug, that you can buy & take home for just $1 extra. - A 3-D diorama of a South Pacific island lagoon behind the bar, with a miniature fishing village in the foreground, and the painted "sky" fades from daylight, through a fairly realistic sunset, to a star-spangled night, & back through a pale lemon-yellow & orchid-pink colored sunrise to full daylight, and does this several times a night. - A patio lit by gas powered tiki torches and strings of lights with bamboo & coconut shell shades, each carved into different tiki images. - Any drink can be ordered as a double in a pineapple shell. - Hukilau is held there every other year, where ever the bar may be (even on the West Coast, or on a small island in the middle of the Pacific).

I'll probably think of more later, I still have 1/2 a container of Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans...
