Thought I'd bump up this post from a few years ago, and add some eye candy from the Seattle tiki bars & restaurants that Woofmutt listed :

The book is a great guide to Seattle area restaurants of the time, many of which
are no longer around, and nice graphics on the cover:

Description of the Kalua Room also from the book " You Can't Eat Mt. Rainier":

And recipe for the Kalua Room's Surf and Sand Cocktail:
