Yowza! A Trader Dick's fan!

Yup, the decor is not as cool as it used to be. When I was really little it was its own building across the street - indoor creek, thatch roofed booths, Hammond organ in the lounge, waitresses in Tiki dresses, a big old clay oven (spare ribs to die for)....

It was the schitt, for sure. Met George Gobel there when I was three. Many years later, my dad told me after I got to shake hands I asked him if he was really lonesome.

A huy named earl Grant played there a few times - my parents had his records...

Trader Dick's, the fondest Tiki memories of my whole life have been there.
