I think my first exposure to Tiki was living with my parents in Kuwait City back in the 60s and eating at the Trader Vic's in the Hilton Hotel. I would always order Baba au Rhum for dessert, which was served at tableside and lit on fire (and contained actual rum) so it wasn't a difficult transition to go to flaming cocktails when I eventually became legally old enough to drink.
