I must admit my guilt, standing up my favorite lady (the Bali Hai on Shelter Island, San Diego) for someone younger and hipper (Mr. Tiki's Mai Tai Lounge, in the Gaslamp District).

Sure, the glass blowfish lamps, shiny new tiki decor, and the short-skirted servers were eye-candy, the the Mai Tai Lounge just lacked the class (not to mention decent Mai Tais) that Bali Hai has.

I hope Mr. Bali Hai forgives me for my faithless flirting with the the nosering-toting Tiki at the Mai Tai Lounge.

Am I the only one who has a guilt trip when I pass up a venerable Tiki spot for a Neo-Tiki joint?
