It was FANTASTIC being back at the Rumpus Room last night!
Hopefully I can make it more a usual thing again :)

Next week JOHN-O!

I will be there with Ring Dings & Devil Dogs!

JOHN-O's first trip to the Rumpus Room!
He even brought Filthy Midget who hasn't been there in quite some time.


From the top: Kahuna Kent, TNT (part 1), Murph, TNT (part 2), Sherriyaki, geedavee, Kirby, FilthyMidget, JOHN-O, Hiphipahula, and Tonga Tom.
PolynesianPop mysteriously disappeared before we took the photo.

'Bout time JOHN-O!

John-O and a cool shirt too!!

He is a dapper lad, isn't he?

A Grand Time! I miss the Rumpus Room.
I hope to be back more often!

Going to be down south for work on Wednesday afternoon as was hoping to make my first visit to the Rumpus Room. Anything going on this Wednesday? If so what supplies do ya need?

I heard Zeta's in So Ca this week.

That would be interesting if he made an appearance. :D

I'm doing it! I'm going to try to make it out (yet again) TONIGHT! This time, I'll employ 10% greater effort than ever before.

Oh, and I'm bringing: a little ice, pre-squeezed lime & lemon juices, tips and a bottle of Cruzan (white).

See ya all soon(ish)!

Thank you

Good post

What a great group! Mucho mahalo to Kirby, Kelly, Trader Tom, Tonga Tom, Sherryaki and all the denizens of tikidom for your hospitality!
Catch you guys at Don the Beachcomber's Sat!

Now, as promised... The Tiki Trailer Of Destiny!!!

Thank you HipHipHula and Tom for your yummy concoctions - where else would I get me a Tiki Reviver!

But WHO was this guy that was just knocking them back like no tomorrow, hanging out at the bar with this babe - he told me to buzz off, and DustyCajun could barely get an order in !? :)

Big thanks to Kirby and the Rumpus Room regulars for the generous outpouring of Tiki hospitality (and drinks) on my first visit to the R R.

Thanks also go out to Big Kahuna for handing out the cool Rumpus Room buttons he brought all the way from chilly Massachusetts.

As Arnold would say:

DC

It was great to see everyone last night. The buttons were acually courtesy of Lukeuele, my sidekick. Today, we visited with Sven, went to Oceanic Arts, Tiki Ti & Trader Vic's. More adventures tomorrow & then Don's on Saturday Night.

[ Edited by: Big Kahuna 2012-03-23 16:32 ]

Love the Buttons! Thank you all for coming out that was too fun! See you at Don's for the Big Tikiyaki Show! Cool Trailer! Thanks Kirby, Polly & Tyler :)

Wednesday! Looking forward to some R&R at the RR ! See you at 7:30 bring your lemons & limes and here's a wish list:

Coruba Dark
Cruzan Vanilla Rum
Liqueurs all kinds,
St. Germain, Grand Mariner, any will help.
Coco squeeze
Pineapple juice
Orange juice
Peychaud bitters

Simple syrup, we need some :) anyone?

K

Yay, I finally get to come over tonight! Bringing vanilla rum, simple syrup and bitters. See ya there!

Had a great time on Wednesday--thanks for being such great hosts!

Thank You Johnny, David & Beth we are all so happy you came to Kirby & Polly's Rumpus Room! That was really cool! Thanks everyone for your very generous donations that really helped to stock our shelves as well as how very tasty :)
I'll be at the RR tonight and wondering who else might be coming? Reminder from Kirby, try to come as close to 7-7:30 as you can so we have time to visit before it gets too late at night. If you would like to join us and need a address please PM Kirby.

Don't forget bring a couple Limes & Lemons for entry ( pre squeeze if you have time you get bonus points ok you don't, but it really helps and we won't make you squeeze at the RR cause you did it already. That's a Bonus!)

ICE
Liqueurs for mixing
Coruba Dark (we are ok on Myers) but if you see some, that would be very cool :)
Small cans or bottles of Soda Water
RYE
Torani Passion Fruit Syrup (this will be fine)
Cans of coke & diet coke

Kirby, RR before Thanksgiving ?? Let's think on that, stay tuned.

Well OK then. I guess it's the Tiki-Ti for me.

Just a reminder/alert to y'all:

Tonight and Saturday are the last afternoons/evenings the Tiki Ti will be open before their customary winter hiatus!

Your next chance for a Ray's Mistake will be December 21st!

CJ

where too??

Aaaaw, we Lala Landers are so spoiled: There's still Trader Vic's downtown, and of course the Tonga Hut, if it's for cocktails. Also Don's, Daimon's, Bahooka and the Tiki No.

Compared to the home town situation of many other Tikiphiles here, we can always get a Tiki-fix, in various forms.

Anyone up for Cana on Thanksgiving Eve ??

I can get a couple of people in on my membership.

Bummers! Kids are on winter break now so I was going to take Christian to RR with me. That said, I can't do Cana but I'm open for Don's, Damon's, Trader Vic's downtown or Bahooka.


**Poly-Pop ***

Bartender, make mine a glass of WATAHHH!!!!!

OK, PolyPop and I will be at Bahooka on Thanksgiving Eve at 7pm for anyone else who wants to join us.

FYI, there is no Rumpus Room for the next two Weds (Nov 23rd and Nov 30th).

[ Edited by: JOHN-O 2011-11-22 18:12 ]

If I can generate enough interest for Nov 30th, I will host a RR party at my South Pasadena
bachelor pad.
It's currently called "Generic Tiki Themed Area #768", but I think it needs a better name.

My place isn't super Tiki because of apartment rules, but I have a bar with some mid-quality booze and I can provide the tunes.

PM me if you are interested, and if I get enough response, I will post more details.

**See you at Bahooka tonight 7:00! **

Rumpus Room is on the side the next couple weeks because we are all working very quickly on The Tonga Hut grand opening Dec 3rd Noon see you there.


Tonga Hut Since 1958
12808 Victory Blvd. North Hollywood

[ Edited by: Hiphipahula 2011-11-23 12:45 ]

Ok so Bahooka at 7pm tonight and Tonga Hut afterwards for Cocktails.
