    Found it by accident seeing a water taxi with the Trader Vic's sign! Great service and the drinks were spot on. Outdoors you get complimentary mosquito repellant with dinner and drinks. Server took us around to pose and have photos with artifacts. Great time!

    MONKEYPOD PUNCH BOWL SET! I acquired mine at an estate sale because it was so cool, but I had no idea what to do with it. Now I use it ALL THE TIME when we have gatherings. Mixed cocktails are great but having a self-serve alternative has proven quite popular. When we first started using it our guests were reluctant to use the carved cups because they were "too nice" (punch bowls have fallen out of fashion in much of the U.S. over the past 50 years or so). Now that they're gotten used to the concept they have no hesitation.
