Tiki Tatsu-Ya: Resplendent Opening
Long time coming, but now here at last and – believe it – even better than we may have hoped. The drinks, the food? Sure. Ooooh, that menu. We expect the best from whatever Tatsu Aikawa sets his attentions to, and that's most likely what we'll find here again and again and again. But, also – the venue itself? Like some immersive outcropping of a tiki-worshipping, 1950s-era exotic Islander dreamscape, as conjured by the wizards of Blue Genie and a whole phalanx of local imagineers? Suggestion: Escape the same old doldrums of mundanity and step into this better, more fantastic world when you want to get your drink and noms on.Mon., Oct. 4
