Got Tiki?

[Feraud]

That mug is a thing of beauty! :eusa_clap

That looks like an Orchids of Hawaii Headhunter mug. Good job! :eusa_clap

The Mai Kai in Ft. Lauderdale is a great '50s era Tiki Bar.

I love using my mugs for yummy tropical drinks!

Oh those mugs are fabulous! Great find.

I attended a party cruise on the Tikki Beach a few months ago, lots of fun.

My shot glasses arrived from the beautiful goldwyn girl and when I saw them I decided, in the words of Boris and Natasha, Forget about gift. Keep for self.

They look like my pugs.

Tiki is cool! I'd love to have a WWII Pacific island (sheet metal, pinups, pilot's lounge/Tiki motif Tiki bar out in the backyard. Yet, wifeypoo says that's too far over the edge. So my contribution is the Ultralounge Mondo Exotica CD.

I have been meaning to visit Waikiki Wally's for some time. This place could make for a decent night out.

 

[BegintheBeguine]

Cool! Wish I were there.

We are big tiki fans. We were thrilled when the trader vic's in dallas reopened. (the atmosphere is great but the service / prices not so much)
On our last trip to San Francisco we visited the famous Tonga room, which was great. We loved is and decided to go two nights in a row.

Here's a fuzzy pic of us there (our night ended up fuzzy too after several mai tais and scorpion bowls) <IMG SRC="http://a750.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/52/l_589ffc2575548dd392bba496b66f0f75.jpg"></IMG>
I'll have to find some pics from the inside of the place too, it was awesome.

We also have quite a few tiki themed places in our house, kind of a much needed tropical escape in the city.

Taboo kinda rekindled my love for tiki and cocktails in general......

Tonga is fantastic

The mention of tiki restaurants makes me want to go to the local Trader Vic's. Maybe a local event dinner might be in order to go to the Trader Vic's in Emeryville here.

We used to have a Trader Vic's downtown (Seattle), I can recall when it was open (far before I was of age to enter, mind you).

It closed, but one opened up across the water in Belleview a bit ago.

I tried to make it to the Trader Vics in London when I was visiting, but it was near Christmas, and was closed on the day I visited.

I have a few (modern) tiki glasses. A former housemate was fairly big into tiki collecting.

That tiki barge looks very entertaining. And wonderful cube, Dr. Shocker - Cult of the Eye member, I take it?

Love tiki... My long-planned for tiki bar addition is close to fruition.

I collect cheap tiki, and make (and sell) what I can... the tiki necklace I wear, I made.

For what it's worth.

Doran, Fedoragent, and I went to a Tiki bar this past weekend and got sloshed. Does that count?
