Pearl Trader Vic's Will Be Awesomely Tacky

By BEN WATERHOUSE

 The Pearl district corner that housed failed corporate restaurants Manzana and Palomino will soon become a Trader Vic's, complete with "uplit tiki statue[s] topped with torch flame" and a wood carved corner fin sign. I'm so excited I can't even pretend to be upset it's a chain. Squee! Portland Urban Blog has the goods.
