Comments on: Open a Midcentury Polynesian Restaurant Today: The Luau Room http://blog.humuhumu.com/2005/09/03/open-a-midcentury-polynesian-restaurant-today-the-luau-room Reports from your intrepid tiki explorer, Humuhumu Thu, 20 Nov 2008 22:48:25 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Kevin http://blog.humuhumu.com/2005/09/03/open-a-midcentury-polynesian-restaurant-today-the-luau-room#comment-47900 Kevin Wed, 14 Feb 2007 14:55:42 +0000 http://blog.humuhumu.com/2005/09/03/open-a-midcentury-polynesian-restaurant-today-the-luau-room#comment-47900 Tiki has just recently peaked my interest, in the collecting & learning sense. I build a tiki bar by my pool a couple of years ago, and have expanded (and still am expanding) on it since, but never really got into actually learning anything about tiki...until I bought a Hawaiian Inn Paddle Licker Mug for $2 at a local flea market. After doing some research, I was hooked. Since then, I collected many items - I can't help, I love the stuff. As I told my wife, "Collecting tiki is my favorite thing to do, so get used to it." I just read last night on Tiki Central about the Luau Room. I didn't even know that Louisville had once hosted a tiki bar/restaurant. I noticed that the thread was from 2003, so I was wondering what do you know of any progress has been made with this building...or if it's even still there! I live in New Albany, IN (just across the river from Louisville). Any info you can share would be great. Thanks, Kevin Tiki has just recently peaked my interest, in the collecting & learning sense.

Also, would the owner consider selling the tiki decor? I’d like to see a copy of the original menu. Also, would the owner consider selling the tiki decor?
