Description
Someone has been working hard on what, from the looks of it, was once an "old guy" pub tucked away on a side street of the suburb. All sorts of mis-matched island-themed decorations have been dragged in and carefully arranged, creating an odd sort of harmony that is almost peaceful to look at. The front of the building has been decorated with large plastic palm trees, and half of it has been set up like the deck of a ship. Nice carpentry work here. There is a working scale-model lighthouse in one corner, and fake tropical life... parrots, flamingos... dot the entire area. Real sand is piled in several areas, and has been dotted with seashells.
Tiki torches have been set up overlooking the various tables. There is a dj station, done up in bamboo, though it isn't properly wired and stands ghostly and empty. Around the base of it are a collection of colorful (fake) island flowers.
The entire roof has been painted to look like a late-evening sky, and is dotted with real lights that look like early-evening stars. The painted sky bleeds into a massive beach mural. It looks like the beach at sunset - brilliant oranges, darkening browns, inevitable deep dark blues. The waves lap a contented shore, and a handsome island boy, bald save for a braid of black hair, offers visitors a gigantic drink with umbrellas and fruit. The smile on his face is infectious, and for a moment, the hell outside the doors is forgotten.
Past the surfboards and the full-scale paper-mache' moai (you got gum gum, dumb-dumb?) is the bar area, the rear of the bar. The back end is done up in an underwater motif. Large under-sea animals, stuffed... probably purloined from a museum... hang from the ceiling. Everything back here is dark, and blue, and cool. The walls are painted like bright blue water, with dark shadows swimming all about. The bar itself is a large purple submarine, with portholes that light up when powered. The ceiling is painted like you are looking up towards the surface of the water, and large coral sculptures, soft in color, abound. When lit, special lighting throws wavy light about this part of the room, like that reflected from the surface of the sea.
Above the bar, carved in driftwood, are the words "Pour Noelani Kiele, la plus belle île aux fleurs - AW"
