How does one define a Tiki Bar. I personally think that if they serve a few of the classic Tiki Drinks they should be classified as Tiki. The two drinks I always look for would be a Fog Cutter or Navy Grog. I mean sure a Mai Tai can be made anywhere, the two listed above are dying breeds. I welcome all opinions. I post this because while passing through Chatsworth California, I found a place called Tryst Bar and Grill. Tryst advertises Tropical Drinks and this is where this question comes from. There were no Tiki Designs, in fact other than the drinks there was nothing Tropical about it. But Navy Grog was on the menu ... Tiki or no...you be the judge. MM.
