The event even had a front row heckler (Loco locals). I don't think that the HR has had a packed house in years. The bartender tried very hard to accommodate everyone’s needs. Candi (Owner) even got behind the bar to make her own versions of Tropical Drinks (Rum, tequila, pineapple & grenadine = Scorpion). :drink: Many thanks to the hula girls for being sports and performing behind the bar... At least they weren't on the bar... eh? Tim: I owe you 101 Mai Tais for stepping up to the bar and aiding as a bar back. You da man. A BIG Mahalo to the crew that helped with the face-lift. Traderpup: Your handyman skills and tolerance for 30-year-old dust were greatly appreciated. My brother-in-law was very impressed with your kava making skills. Utopian Dream: Both you and Dave are wonderful. I can't wait to sample the homemade tikibeer. Please keep in touch. Smoken' Menehunes: To quote my sista's, "Do they have a CD. They are really good" Good indeed! Thanks for breathing life back into the HR. I am a definite believer. Bong, Your parents were very proud. Artist: Crazy Al, Seamus, Octane, ChikiTiki Diablo, Bong Leach Crew & Johnny Velour. You should definitely have a rotating tiki exhibit. Thanks for entrusting me with your art. You are all true braddahs. TikiFarm (Holden): Thanks for creating such a nice mug. The colors were exactly what I expected. Other than the 2 I have on reserve, We sold out. TikiCentral Familia: You are the funest-est group of people that I have ever partied with. Thanks for supporting the event. Hawaiian Room Owners, Candi & Monroe, were ecstatic about having TC er's visit the bar. Monroe told me that he originally bought the bar because he loved the decor. He is happy to see that the appreciation of tiki is alive and thriving. I recommended that he keep the front area as "Tikified" as possible, to always have a bottle of Passion Fruit Syrup on hand, and a mixture of Martin Denny & Petty Booka on the Juke. He agreed. After we uncovered the video games and plugged in the dartboards. I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. The spirit of tiki has defiantly returned to the Hawaiian Room. Monroe would like to have the group back once a year. He also wants to invite everyone over for Candi's famous Korean Barbeque and Kim Chi. Needless to say, Tiki Central will always have a home at the Hawaiian Room.
