Description:
Flygrestaurangen at Bromma airport was a classic restaurant in Sweden. In 1962 they opened a extra room named Tiki with room for around 60 guests, with polynesian and oriental decor (most of it bought in London after some disappointing search for artifacts at real exotic locations). A giant tiki, 4 meters tall and 400kg massive wood, was commisioned from China and brought there by plane. The Tiki was nick-named Petsson (likely named after one of the first airplanes in Sweden). This information comes from "Fröken, får jag be om matsedeln", a book on classic Swedish restaurants. A surviving Swizzle stick indicate that they also served cocktails. This place was likely the first tiki-establishment in Sweden.
