I had the honor of visiting Sven at his home in LA where he was kind enough to tear himself away from his new book Tiki Modern and give me a tour.




The house is a tiki museum, I don't think the Jungle Room at Graceland can compare to the Witco furniture that Sven has collected or the most beautiful collection of lamps I have ever seen.





After visiting the Daddy tiki we headed down to Tiki Ti where we met up with the Beachbum himself who had taught me how to make a proper Mai Tai through his books. Big Bro and Beachbum Berry, I was in the court of tiki.
At one point in the evening Mike Sr. offered a toast to his father and the entire bar joined in and we all clinked to Ray who opened the Tiki Ti almost 50 years ago.
