The Tiki Bungalow held its first Maovember event last year, a fun Magnum P.I.-inspired affair, and returned this year with another evening of action. Guests enjoyed Pina Colada shots, Hellfire shots or Bacardi Oakheart spiced rum shots at rmb20 each, with all proceeds to Maovember. They could also buy leis for rmb20 and by night’s end the packed bar was full of these colorful objects. Add the rhythmic music that defines Tiki Bungalow, and an enthusiastic crowd, and it was a good night, one that raised rmb1400 from shots, rmb400 from leis and rmb137 from donations, for a grand total of rmb1937 or 19,370 mao.
