New tiki bar opens in NYC tonight, Brooklyn’s Tiki Bar, Brooklyn, NY
Apparently it's not only a tree that grows in Brooklyn -- Brooklyn's Tiki Bar celebrates its grand opening tonight in New York City.
There isn't much information about the drinks on their website ("exotic frozen drinks" is all that's mentioned), nor are there any interior photos, but the site does have a somewhat controversal "Door Policy" posted. Patrons must have "casual, but neat" attire: no hats, no sneakers, no work boots, athletic gear, or jerseys. They will also be scanned with a metal detector.
Some find the policys outrageous for a "tiki bar," but it just may be that people's expectations about how classy a tiki bar should be are unrealistly low. The Trader Vic's I visited in Washington was very high-end.
