Trader Vics? Somebody must think the Alibi is getting too much business.
Egads! This city is going to collapse, sink into the Atlantic, disappear into the sands of the desert, merely from the mortal obesity of retro hipsterism.
I can already see the long line of goatees, fedoras and waistcoats on the sidewalk, smoking and flicking butts Bogart-like out into the street, waiting to get inside and pose for imaginary fashion photographers.

Ah wooooo! Too bad Trader Vic's isn't re-opened yet -- would've been a howl tonight.

Spent a lot of money there in the 50'S. Never saw any wan-a-bes or posers.

That was the '50's. This ain't.
