    The little details are incredible. I feel like the SoCal tiki community shares a special nostalgia; whether it be vintage bars, Palm Springs, or even Disney, we can appreciate and understand each other’s approach to the culture.

    I'd love to see an in depth tour of his tiki bar, like you did with the Breezeway. It looks amazing, it's also a reminder that my thoughts of converting my garage into a tiki bar would just label me as a fraud haha.

    Here I am, discovering more videos I haven't seen :)
    Cocoanut Grove fun tie-in: for a few years about a decade ago, I ran a mid-century lounge night at one of our best punk/music dives here in Indy, the Melody Inn. We always had a live band... anything from swanky lounge, 60's tiki, NOLA jazz, etc, etc, and I also had a long playlist of mid-century stuff (crooners, tiki, jazz, big band) I played between sets. I was inspired to call the night "Cocoanut Grove" after seeing the movie The Aviator and reading up on the history of the Hollywood club. I wore a tux as MC. Great times :)

    I like Tiki because when I was young my parents use to take us to a tiny little hole in the wall Tiki Restaurant that had Polynesian look and food menu, and I just thought it was so different, pirate like, special even though I was way too young to drink.. it reminds me of those times.
