It’s listeria either way you go.

Has strong Pirate Joe’s vibes.

I’m still sad that shut down.

It’s pretty obvious (given the tropical shirts that Trader Joe’s staff wear (or used to, I haven’t seen it much lately) that their name and theming is based on once-famous Tiki-bar chain Trader Vic’s, so it is a bit rich to see them complain about someone ripping off them.

Having an interest in exotica music ages ago, this is all I could ever think of when I heard the supermarket chain existed.

I’ve only been to the London one which I see was closed recently. Their locations are nearly all middle east now!
