Prague Tiki - Tiki Travel

B bigbrotiki Tiki Socialite Tiki Island, above the Silverlake Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 11621	B bigbrotiki Posted posted on Tue, Mar 2, 2010 7:04 AM I am flying to Prague today to shoot a German TV movie (a teenage vampire spoof !) for the next six weeks. From having done a film there in 1997, I am a big fan of Prague Cubist architecture: http://www.praha.eu/jnp/en/residents/city/cubism/index.html There was no Tiki in town then. I just virtually walked my neighborhood via Google street view and found out that my apartment (in the middle of tourist town) is just around the corner from the Aloha Wave Cocktail Lounge and Cafe, which opened in 2005 (or so) inspired by the BOT, using images from it for their menu: http://www.alohapraha.cz/cz/ By the looks of it, it is the stylistic opposite of the Taky Tiki, (now know as the Tiki Taky !): http://www.tikitaky.cz/pp/a/on_a.html It'll be interesting to see these two widely varying interpretations of Tiki in town. :)
