The amazing "RYAN" the DTB bartender. His mixture of
drinks were outstanding. I asked if I could take his picture
and he said as long as you do not tell the secrets of the
drink mixtues.

Ben - You build stuff for us....remember ?

Good time last night. Looks like the candle room is where they boot all us tiki people when the bar gets too crowded. :D

It's like our own little clubhouse. Good time as usual. Finally got to try the Zombie and Vicious Virgin...good stuff. Ryan,, you da' man !

Really nice to see the restaurant hopping again. Dining room was busy, bar was busy, good times lie ahead. Really looking forward to seeing the changes that they have planned.

Always good to see the Ohana.

Yeah! That was fun! I got there late (9:00?) and got one of the last of the zombies, yum! Tobunga got us a basement tour - I had no idea they even had a basement! We ended up closing the place and a few of us wnet over to Harbor House for a late night nosh. You guys are the best. . . :)
I'm so glad that Art stepped in and saved this place for us!

How come I don't have a "TIKIYAKI ORCHESTRA CD YET?"

tobunga posted on 03/28/2009

Uh-oh Jim! Sounds like you need to hook up Ryan with the first brilliant Tikyaki album, or we may see a diversion in the flow of delicious tiki drinks!

It was great how TC ohana took over the Candle Room... and a couple more pieces in the art show sold last night!

Thanks Renee for the impromptu late-night basement tour! Very cool!

You'll have to be sworn in to find out. What? You think we reveal the Secret Rituals to pedestrians? Sheeeesh....

I made it over to DTB last Thursday, one day early (we had to catch a plane to Minneapolis on Friday); even with the hellish drive from Hollywood it was worth a trip! I got to try the Mai Tai which was delicious (definitely different from the standard Vic's version, but very complex, I think a little falernum and pernod were present) and had a tasty seafood platter, and the service was excellent.

It was my first visit to Sam's/Kona/Don the Beachcomber, and I was really impressed with the scale of the placeā€”so many cool hidden rooms, awesomely decorated. The bar looks great... I can't wait for my next visit to try the greatly expanded drink menu.

thanks for the photos Raves!

that was indeed a fun night...and how very cool to get to tour the old brothel and speakeasy areas of the basement where all those MURDERS happened. at one point i was possessed by a demon haint that told me to murder Marty Lush, but Hipster Hula fended me off with those ginormous sheers.

alohas!
