EDITOR’ S FIND“ Check out a new hidden tiki bar in Olneyville in Providence! The former Justine’ s is now Kiki Bar(@ kikibar olneyville on Instagram). You can order fun tropical cocktails like a Mai Thai, Jungle Bird and Blue Hawaiian, plus a giant scorpion bowl served in fun tiki glassware like a flamingo-themed vessel adorned with paper umbrellas and fruity garnishes. They even have a tiki-themed potty.”— Jamie Coelho, editor in chief
