Oakhana Night at The Kon-Tiki Featuring New Hits
Made it back to The Kon-Tiki to partake in the Wednesday Ohana night. Always fun to see the Oakland Oahana regulars and the efficient and friendly Kon-Tiki crew. We tried a couple new things. While Mrs. Mai Tai had the legendary Kon-Tiki Burger with fries, I tried the Shrimp Tacos that I’d never seen on the menu before. I was so glad I did because they were totally fabulous, so fresh with pico and jack cheese. I’m not sure if these will stick around but I’d encourage anyone to try them.
