I'm way behind on my TC reading, and just caught up on this thread. Not a moment too soon, as we will be in Berlin in early October. We will definitely be visiting Tabou Tiki, and I'll bring a NW Tiki Crawl souvenir mug to add to your collection. Hope there are a few TT signature mugs left for Tiki Centralites! See you in a couple of weeks... |

Hi Tiki-Toa, of course we're looking for mugs, we just don't have the money right now to buy any. Do you have mugs for sale? We'll set up a display case for the mugs of bar regulars. The regulars' cocktail will be served in the persons personal mug. |

Kaiserstyle - in searching for stuff to do on our upcoming trip to Berlin, I checked out this site (as reccomended by Tiki Chris): http://www.berlin-tourist-information.de/english/ausgehen/e_au_bars.html I noticed that Tabou Tiki is not listed! You might want to contact them to rectify that situation... Looking forward to meeting you next week! Anybody know if Sven is currently in Germany or back home in LA? |

We want to thank Sven again for the phantastic job he did at his WITCO slide-show (cut the W/V jokes everybody, I'm German, too). It was one of the best nights at the TTR (pic coming soon). Mahalo [ Edited by: kaiserstyle on 2004-10-21 03:55 ] |

Woody my boy! I am jealous ya jerk! I was going to shoot out there, but a project start time conflicted with travel plans in Dec. Then that start date was postponed and I finally have a meeting w/ the people manana. So I didn't go to Europe for my Tiki Carving Tour II during the holidays. Well here is the location of the bar, corner of Maybachufer and Nansenstr along the canal . I HAVE TO GET MY BUTT BACK THere! [ Edited by: thechikitiki on 2005-02-16 18:16 ] |

Unbelievable! Only on Tiki Central could I ask for directions in a German city only to be provided with photographic help from a carver from LA! Thanks Chiki - it's a real shame you won't be out there, but I know you have the bug and will be back sooner than later. Fascinating photos of the carving/decorating process, too. I tried to go down to South London Pacific as it was getting decorated in order to document the process, but they accomplished it too quickly. Anyway, no doubt I'll be seeing you carving up a storm at some point in the future, but on which continent? Trader Woody |

Hi Trader, when exactly are you gonna be in Berlin? I will be on the road most of the year but I hope it will be somewhere between March 14th-19th. I Belli di Waikiki will play on the 18th, Men from SPECTRE on the 17th. Hope to see you, Stefan. Chikitiki, thanks for the pics and get your ass over here asap. |

I'm actually going to be there March 4th-8th, so hopefully you'll be around! It's a pity not to see the Men from SPECTRE. I've a photo of them walking in their suits from their chalet at the Wild Weekend 2 a few years back. A highly entertaining band. Anyway, the reason for going to Berlin was to see the Tabou and say hi, so hopefully you'll be there and it'll be open! Trader Woody |

I'm buggered! Ah, the sight of a closed Tiki bar is horribly common for a multitude of reasons, but I'm confident the Tabou will be in full swing......... Trader Woody |

Ack! As you know, we came in on Sunday night, which wasn't the plan, but things went down strange routes over the weekend. I knew things were not on the Tiki track from the moment we arrived at our hotel and I found the mug I'd brought over as a gift for your display case was in pieces, despite being in my personal bag. From then on, it just was a fun blur, but it meant that by the time we hit the Tabou, we felt like our kidneys had been punched by big-fisted bastards. Saying that, I loved the place! It's incredible! Every detail is a wink in the direction of the hardcore Tikiphile, and done with a good dollop of humour. Nice to see some Flounder art up on the walls, as well as the very cool display of art for sale. Cocktails were wonderful and your bartendress (Laila?) really made us feel at home. Nice carvings too.....now who did those......? Big shame to have missed out on seeing you, but it just gives an excuse for going back to Berlin. Trader Woody |

This is a nice easter island (T.D.) style tiki. With the gold lettering too. I have yet to get a tiki in my bar and a Moai is going to be a must. Maybe the first type of tiki I use. And maybe a litle use on gold like that would be the cat's back. The painting are great too. |

Those were the days...that place was, as far as a basically self-made Tiki bar in Europe goes, as good as it gets. |

Indeed - amazing attention to detail and all the elements of a Tiki bar that members of Tiki Central love. What were the reasons for it closing? I know it was a little out of the way - I'll never forget almost freezing to death making our way back to our central hotel. It dis seem pretty busy the night we went, though. Trader Woody |

OF COURSE not! We carelessly failed to insert the differentiation "best self-made REVIVAL Tiki Bar in Europe" in our remembrances. :D |
