"East Village Tiki bar Otto’s Shrunken Head opened in 2002 to address the dearth of tropical spots in NYC after the closing of Hawaii Kai and Trader Vic’s. The unapologetically kitschy space has big red tufted booths, floral patterns on the walls, and zebra-print chairs. There’s an eclectic range of live music on offer, plus the occasional open mic night, film screening, or live band karaoke." - Alexandra Ilyashov, Carla Vianna
