Piercing Eyes and Menacing Scowls

We like Tiki bars.  Why?  It’s a culture of people with the passion for this specific art of innovative cocktails (think rum-based mixed drinks such as the Mai Tai and Zombie) and the exotics of Polynesia and the Caribbean.  We think of escaping to romantic tropical locations without getting on an airplane.  

The Tonga Hut, set in the California desert, offers such an escape.  It even has a secret room for Tiki connoisseurs.  We would tell you how to find the secret room but… we can’t remember how we got in.
