Tiki Time at Mother of Pearl
The kickoff for Mr. T's big birthday weekend began Friday night at Mother of Pearl. This hopping little tiki bar in the East Village is entirely vegan and the drinks go way beyond the realm of old wooden tiki cups. How about the bourbon and passion fruit Shark Eye served inside a shark glass dressed with maraschino "blood"? Or the tremendous Sugar Cane Magik; a delicious blend of coconut cream, pineapple, lime and almond topped off with a bottle of Ron Zacapa Solera rum. It's a crazy tropical paradise right on Avenue A. This place gets insanely packed on the weekends but they accept reservations for large parties which I highly recommend. Mother of Pearl 95 Avenue A at 6th Street New York, NY 10010
