CALLING ALL TIKI ENTHUSIASTS!!

We need YOUR help to name to a brand new TIKI PARADISE!! Winner will receive a fabulous prize, not to mention a little notoriety.
(please note we've created an email address for this contest below, don't reply to DJLee)

We are very proud to announce the opening of a fantastic new tiki bar brought to you by Bobby Green, local and world famous designer of Cacao Coffee House (West Los Angeles), the Bigfoot Lodge (Los Angeles & San Francisco) and the Little Cave (Highland Park).

This little gem is located in the San Fernando Valley, where the 405 and the 118 freeways meet. Formerly known as the "Wild Cherry," this bar, built in the '50s, is suspected of being a former tiki bar (unconfirmed as of yet due to its current dive bar appearance). It features a lava rock fagade and a large lava rock fireplace, perfect for a complete tiki restoration. The bar will feature full liquor with tropical drinks and authentic tiki dicor including carvings and paintings from some of the best contemporary tiki artists. We will have our very own custom tiki mug, DJ's, special events and island tunes to take you far, far away.

Put on your tiki thinking hats, fezzes, lais (whatever gets your creative juices flowing), down a shot of rum and submit a name suggestion to us by (date) The winning name (which will be picked by us, after several Mai-Tais) will receive a $100.00 gift certificate for drinks at our new Polynesian paradise in the Valley!

The grand opening date has not been set, but is expected some time in November or December of 2004. We'll be sure to update you with the date, as well as the winning name. We hope you'll all come visit us!
