NEED A NEW REASON TO DRINK IN HOLLYWOOD? THIS ONE'S ON US

The “Vixen” and the “Virgin Sacrifice” aren’t characters in some tawdry Hollywood flick. They’re spiffy drinks at a new tiki bar in the heart of Tinseltown. POINT MOOREA, a Polynesian-style outpost in Los Angeles’ Wilshire Grand Hotel, was designed to mirror the elegant “theme lounges” of the 1950s. It features a martini bar with zebrawood-paneled seats, 12 video screens, pool tables, and fiber-optic lighting in the ceiling that simulates the constellations as seen from — where else? — the South Seas. Only in Hollywood. 930 Wilshire Blvd., (213) 833-5100
