Ok,
The official:
"WAIKIKI WOMB ROAD TRIPS TO LA DESCARGA'S TIKI NIGHT"
are on Tuesday nights at 8pm

Steve, of La Descarga, has graciously invited all of us at the Womb to join him at his bar on Tuesdays for TIki Tuesday Nights.
If you have not been to La Descarga before you are in for a real treat... one word "armoire"

PS. if you get the munchies next door is one of the best "hole in the wall" taco joints in LA.

See you all Tuesday. Wear your tiki best.

Tuesday July 17th we usher in the start of Tiki Tuesdays at La Descarga. New head bartender Joe Swifka will have an exciting menu of classic and modern Tiki cocktails with all the Tiki bells and whistles. There will be live Polynesian inspired music and dance performances too. No reservations necessary - 8pm to close.

From the test run last night...

Nice. Love Descarga

Oh, now I see.

Loved the place. Next week I shall be in Tiki gear and bringing a cigar with me so I can enjoy the cigar room.
Car pool next week?

Thanks for the pix, John-O! Always wanted to try a Big Bamboo...I must still be jet-lagged: I always was thinking about NEXT Tuesday

TT

Sounds great!
How's the parking around that joint? Carpooling sounds like a good idea.

Street parking can be difficult the later you show up.

Also here's an idea of mine. Wouldn't it be cool if afterward we took a short walk over to the nearby Tiki Theater...

And took a picture of us all lined up in full Aloha wear waiting to get in. :)

Pay for valet it is $8, especially if you have ladies in heels with you or don't fancy drining in circles.

Though according to the Tiki Theater picture, there is parking in their rear. Unless that means something that I just shouldn't get into here.

I had a good time.

1 Big Bamboo

a Haitian Zombie

and a scratched van in the Taco Bell drive-thru

That video is hilarious! "...served over crushed lava rocks" - those guys had fun!

Wonder if "Dude, you've been watching way to much Boardwalk Empire" is a play on the fact that Dr.Cocktail/Ted Haigh is the graphic designer for that show :)

Very funny

See everyone in a couple hours!

I'm feeling parched as well....

WOW! Three of the best cocktails I've had all year (Mai Tai, 3 Dots and a Dash, Big Bamboo) and my legs are all wobbly!

Thank you Murph for posting and getting the ball rolling and thank you La Descarga!

I was blown away. Great place, great drinks. I can't believe I hadn't been there before, but I know I'm going back...especially after seeing the widely-varied rum bottles lining the back of the bar.

Thanks to La Descarga, and thanks to Murph for setting it up.

kevin

WooHooo! I can't wait until next Tuesday :)

Black Magic Woman, especially when they add the smokey. If they forget to add it, not as special, but still a tasty drink. We'll be back!

Aloha, SoCal ohana!

Thank you for showing your enthusiastic support last night. We had a very successful evening, due in no small part to your livers!;)
