But none of them are tiki. I think the question of how high of quality you want your drinks to be vs how much volume exists at a high price point is an important one. In this business we all want our bars to be packed with people waiting to get in. In a given market, what will create that desire to be there? I'd love to have a bar like the Tiki Ti. I do not know of a location where I could open a bar like Tiki Ti that would be a financial success.
