How can a simple trip to arizona to see tombstone, old Tucson and Bisby go tiki?, by simple accident of course!.While returning from tombstone with my wife, I got off the 10 frwy to show her where my granny lived and I spent many a summer. I was traveling down Broadway when I spotted a sign that said "Kon Tiki" on it and I hit the brakes and turned right mighty fast!. After parking , we walked up to a semi-plain looking entrance with some older looking tikis out front and then I remembered the tiki bar review of this place.We went inside and all that I could do is gasp!.This place was bad-ass to the bone!. It was about 3pm and the place was already half full on a friday!.We ordered drinks and shrimp cocktail and just looked around in disbelief at how cool this place is!.After the drink, |

Did you catch the Wishbone Chicken sign just across Swan from Kon Tiki thats made up of jagged "explosion" profiles which flash concentrically inward till it strobes an explosion in the middle?

Well, it has been a while since I stepped in to Tucson for a little tiki action, but I was well rewarded by an amazing friday night dinner and drinks once again.There was barely room to sit in the main area, but us diners have an elevated area for proper viewing of the goings on and all the cool decore.The food was really good, even the wife who is real picky, loved it. The drinks were damn good and the service was top notch, WAY better than most any place within 50 miles of us here on the west side. I know for some it seem far, but it is so worth going. Just tell then Erich from L.A.sent ya!.Mahalo y'all. |
