It was great to be back at @the_maikai_restaurant

It was great to be back at @the_maikai_restaurant on Sunday for the Cruise-In Classic Car Show. Cool custom cars, great cocktails, tasty food (from @mckfoodtruck) and good friends. We also picked up a bunch of new Mai-Kai merch! Mahalo to manager Kern Mattei, public relations director Pia Dahlquist and all of the staff and owners. Thanks to Five Points Motor Club for their devotion. We'll definitely be back for The Mai-Kai Tiki Market Place on April 17. #maikai #maikairestaurant #savethemaikai #supporthospitality #maikaicocktails

Our next #tikimugmonday flashback to @thehukilau t

Our next #tikimugmonday flashback to @thehukilau takes us to 2017, when @tikitony designed his first official mug, the amazing shrunken head that was inspired by the actual artifacts that have been sealed in a shadowbox in @the_maikai_restaurant Samoa dining room for some 65 years. The mugs were expertly produced by @mulder142 and Eekum Bookum. Tony also designed the artwork that appeared on the official program and many merch items, including new cocktail glasses and coffee mugs. He also created pendants based on The Mai-Kai's distinctive table lamps. #tiki #tikimug #tikimugs #mugmonday #hukilau #tikiweekend #maikai #maikairestaurant #tikitony #eekumbookum #shrunkenhead

A great podcast not to be missed! ..... ...... Posted @withregram • @therumcast Ooooooh yeah! No better way to kick off the weekend than with a new episode of the Rumcast! We are very excited to release this newest episode, in which we interview Ian Burrell, the Global Rum Ambassador and co-founder of Equiano Rum (the world’s first African and Caribbean rum) among other ventures. In signature fashion, Ian takes us on an entertaining ride through discovering the rums of Mauritius, his relationship with Richard Seale, how the first Equiano rum blend came to be, what to expect next from Equiano, developing the International Sugarcane Spirits Awards, adventures in awards categories, overlooked or underrated rum distilleries, his basketball and music careers, and more! Find the episode live now on Rumcast.com or any podcast player you prefer. And, as always, if you’re enjoying the content, let us know by sharing with other rum lovers and leaving us some feedback. Cheers and thanks to @therumambassador for a great conversation!
