It's Chadillac's birthday (the nicest door guy in the world) Tuesday, and Lisa Marie is planning a little surprise for him at the Tonga Hut. He'll be at the Tonga Hut at 9pm, so Lisa Marie says to be there by 8:30. He's supposed to work, but Lisa Marie is taking up a donation, so he can have the night off. So, come by and celebrate Chad the-door-guy's birthday on Tuesday eve.

Tonga Hut. Two words. Frickin' terrific.

God bless this North Hollywood mainstay. A survivor. A neighborhood landmark. When I bring newbies into the fold, even they recognize the importance of this space while the fantastic cocktails seal these thoughts into their psyche. Nobody forgets warm and cozy. We love our time spent at this preternatural bridge between the past and present.

I can't visit as much as I would like, but walking into the bar is akin to walking into a comfortable and familiar home. With Tonga Hut's continued support by friends of the DROOLING BASTARD, I need not worry...I feel I'm welcome there.

Thanks to the present owner - Thanks to Kelly and other staff members - Thanks to the Loyal Order of the Drooling Bastard. You people are extended family.

Marty's shirt goes to 11. It's one louder, isn't it?

Tonga Hut has got to have that "Loudest Tiki Shirt Contest" soon people I promise! Stay posted and I'll set a date with prizes too!

Manuel, way to match that shirt and shorts. You should be on a cruise ship! And Grog, sing your heart out!

Kudos to Jeremy for what he's done with the Tonga Hut !!

Not only has he restored this former "jewel in the rough" back to its original Tiki glory but the guy's not afraid to take risks either. He's allowed the lunatics (Hiphipahula, Marty Lush, Grog etc.) to take over the asylum and it's resulted in what might be most innovative Tiki bar around when it comes to mixology, music, and art.

Is this the Donn Beach of the 21st Century ?? :)

Witco hits the Tonga!

The Witco story at the Tonga Hut, the short long of it all....

 In a conversation with Sven Kirsten and Tonga Hut owner Jeremy at the Sound of Tiki Cd listening and signing event it was mentioned that a art piece was needed to replace a Tapa print on the large back wall over the back booth. "Maybe a framed Witco?"   Jeremy has long been a fan and collector of mid-century art and design. Sven replied that he has a Witco outrigger piece that would be perfect for the spot. 
 As a week or two passed the Tonga Hut starts planning our debut Room Crawl at Tiki Caliente II 2010 Co hosting with Queen Kamehameha-Amy. The party went off without a hitch, it was a smash hit! 
 One week later a very special gift arrives at the Tonga Hut, It's the Witco Outrigger! Jeremy text messages Hiphipahula Kelly and says, "the TH has a witco!" it's cool! I want more!" Kelly replies, " uh huh, that's how it all starts..."    
 The Tonga Hut humbly thanks Ray and Amy Boylan for their friendship and generosity. Thank You also to Sven Kirsten for making the Outrigger from his collection available to Ray and Amy for the Tonga Hut.

            Auf uns! The Tonga Hut
