Rum-based drinks served with bamboo straws. Spearmint and pineapple, maraschino cherries speared on a tiny bar sword. A waiter in a loud floral shirt asks you for your order. "A mystery bowl for me and my associates." There's Hawaiian slack music on the speakers, and old surf videos on the TV behind the bar.
The staff bangs a gong as they bring the shareable drink to the table. You plunge your straw below the surface and take a sip. It's a two hour vacation, a holidy from real.
