The city officials were reluctant to issue a liquor license to an establishment across the street from a high school. Apparently their fears were well-founded, because Krustiki recalls being served alcohol there when he was under the legal age.

Unfortunately they were known for this in the '80s, but it probably peaked some kids interest in Tiki, too. There are many old Tiki/Exotica/Nautical apartment buildings along Rosemead, I wonder what the relationship is between their remaining the same & the Bahooka: Did the Bahooka influence the building owners to keep the Tikis, or did the Tikis influence the Bahooka to keep going?
