Sven When we were at the Hukilau people would come up and ask what
is the Kahiki!
Dam has the tiki resurge gone so far that newbies need to be retaught
about the old stuff?
Saw some great old cool tiki items for sale at the Hukilau, the kind of stuff
that would be in your house Sven, When the vending was over THAT'S the stuff that
did not sell!
But time and time again you will see some kinda new say Kahiki item go for top dollar,
while a Hoffman mug goes for less.
THIS is the problem I fear for the new tiki bars, most of the new tiki people WANT the
new what we would call not so tiki vibe. (even some Hukilau and TC tiki people)
BUT when you post photos of your home people go ga, ga, I don't get it.
And the "Old World Charm" places were like what half of ALL restaurants and hotels, Maybe a bit less.
I don't get it, What does it say about a society that thinks Starbucks is awesome.
And yes it's ok to like what ya like in your own home.
But it's also ok to be on a site like this one and say your version of tiki is Starbuckie.
I tried to be nice there.
Rant over for now.
