 I like cocktail bars. Here's some notable ones I liked in a variety of cities. I like cocktail bars. Here's some notable ones I liked in a variety of cities.
  
 +==== Edmonton ====
 +
 +  * [[https://honihonitiki.com/|Honi Honi Tiki Lounge]] - solid tiki bar in downtown YEG. Nice selection of rums and some unusual-looking agave options. Rum barrel and white pearl were my favorites, and the ti'punch had a really interesting Mexican agricole in it
 ==== Raleigh ==== ==== Raleigh ====
  
-  * Foundation +  * [[https://foundationnc.com/|Foundation]] - The best cocktail bar in the Triangle. The proprietor of The Alderman (Chicago) knew these folks. 
-  * C Grace (closed)+  * [[https://auntybettysbar.com/|Aunty Betty's]] - A gin & absinthe bar. Didn't have absinthe when I went, but it did have a very knowledgeable and awesome bartender. 
 +  * [[https://www.dramanddraught.com/|Dram and Draught]] - Whiskey bar with good cocktails. Haven't gotten to know this one too well. 
 +  * [[https://indyweek.com/music/after-a-decade-of-jazz-c-grace-closed-saturday/|C Grace]] (RIP) Used to be an amazing jazz bar, no more.
  
 ==== Chicago ==== ==== Chicago ====
  
-  * The Alderman +  * [[https://www.thealdermanchicago.com/|The Alderman]] - Reservation only but we got in without one. Incredible bar and a very quirky and personable owner-bartender. 
 +  * [[http://www.cindysrooftop.com/|Cindy's Rooftop]] - Very vanilla bar but has a nice view of the city and millennium park.
 ==== Long Beach ==== ==== Long Beach ====
  
-  * Ordinarie +  * [[https://www.theordinarie.com/|Ordinarie]] - A very cozy bar. 
-  * Secret Island +  * [[https://www.secretisland.shannonscorner.com/|Secret Island]] - Cool tiki bar 
-  * Bamboo Club +  * [[https://www.bambooclublb.com/|Bamboo Club]] - A tiki bar that knows its history. Down the street from [[restaurants|Chiang Rai]].
 ==== Los Angeles ==== ==== Los Angeles ====
  
-  * Clifton's Pacific Seas +  * [[https://web.archive.org/web/20240226014113/https://theneverlands.com/pacific-seas/|Clifton's Pacific Seas]] - My first tiki bar and a very special one. One of the best interiors of any tiki bar I have been in.
 ==== Denver ==== ==== Denver ====
  
-  * Hell or High Water+  * [[https://www.hellorhighwatertiki.com/|Hell or High Water]] - gay/queer tiki bar in Denver. Unique selection of glassware and server garb.
  
 ==== Seattle ==== ==== Seattle ====
  
-  * canon +  * [[https://www.canonseattle.com/|canon]] - notable for having the largest spirit collection in America, I felt like I was wasting the bar's time ordering off the menu. 
-  * Rumba (and its companion tiki bar, Inside Passage)+  * [[https://www.rumbaonpike.com/|Rumba]] - canon for rum drinkers. Told the server I was interested in rhum agricoles - received a flight and a 20 minute crash course + q&a on the subject when he returned. Amazing bar. 
 +  * [[https://www.insidepassageseattle.com/|Inside Passage]] (inside Rumba) - A neat tiki spot that focuses more on novelty than other tiki bars I've attended. The cocktails are good but premixed to save space, you can't order off menu here.
