Trader Vic's, Emeryville

Trader Vic's is a tiki-filled outpost of south seas decor and island-style cuisine on the San Francisco Bay.  The establishment began in 1934 as "Hinky Dink's" on San Pablo Avenue in Oakland but was transformed into a tropical hotspot after the owner's trip to Cuba.  When we sketched there last week, Judith's drink had an umbrella in it--and Ken's sported a parrot!

Our neighbors in the bar were sipping from the same huge drink through three individual straws.

Part of the great collection of masks in the back rooms.
