OK, the K-Town crawl was a success.
http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=37180&forum=17&start=15&34
Here's my idea for future events. Please give me your feedback.
I'm here to expand your Tiki minds. :)
- The Downtown LA Broadway Tour (not really a bar crawl):
-
"Tiki" morning brunch at Clifton's Cafeteria - Last remaining Clifton's. (Defunct) Clifton's Pacific Seas was an important mid-century Poly-pop landmark. Then...
-
The LA Conservancy Broadway Theater Tour - Hands down one of the best and most unique tours in LA. This is about a 1.5-mile round-trip walking tour which visits historic LA Movie Palaces built between 1910 and 1931. Some of these theaters have been restored to their former glory, some have been converted into churches (servicing the local Latino population), and some have been turned into wholesale electronics stores (with Art Deco remnants still remaining). This tour is an urban archeologist's dream !! I can try to arrange a private TC tour. Next...
-
Afternoon cocktails at Hank's Bar, one of my favorite DTLA mid-century dive bars. And yes we can continue on to Trader Vic's.
- The Westside Nautical/Beachcomber Crawl. This late afternoon crawl would include the following:
- Chez Jay
- The Galley
- The Warehouse (however not in crawling distance, will need cars)
- The Downtown LA "New Cocktailian" Crawl.
Not mid-century focused but would focus on upscale mixology places like the Varnish, the Association, etc. Downtown is blowing up, but this crawl won't be cheap !! To keep it "real", we can pay a side visit to the notorious King Eddy Saloon on the border of Skid Row.
More weird Korean food plus this time we make it to Frank N Hanks.
