And there are even more recipes for tiki-inspired meals, colourful drinks, and gooey, decadent desserts—all of them vegetarian-friendly or offering vegetarian alternatives.

Some of the featured recipes include:

  • Sea Pickle Chips
  • Swedish Barnacle Balls
  • Sandy's Texas-Style Chili Con Carne
  • Double Dark Deep Sea Cake (CHOCOLATE!!)
  • Krakatoa Lava Cake
  • Patrick's Pink Punch
