Before opening the Bigfoot Bobby had a coffee shop in the Santa Monica area called Cacao - it was a hip coffee shop with all tiki decor. He held a few tiki/art events there like the Lugnut Luau which featured the art of Von Franco, and his own, amongst others. The Bigfoot is more like (what I like to call it) a 1940s ski lodge. The idea came from places up in northern and Central California like in Monterey. I personally think of it as a 1940s ski lodge. He sold the coffee shop to develop the Bigfoot - I don't know who the buyer was or if it stayed tiki or what. |
