Mauna Loa was located at 172 Hamburgo , Mexico City.

From the brochure: "Among the jungle gardens and Polynesian idols, the very walls seem to speak of exotic viands from the far corners of the world."

I am not sure of how did the interiors of the "Zona Rosa" bar looked like. This is the only place where I have seen the printed address and a picture.

Special thanks to the famous anonymous collector who owns this piece of Mexican Tiki history. You know who you are. :wink:

Fantastic volcano art!

TRANSLATION:

Mauna Loa, (zincon?) de Hawaii, from the gorgeous tropical entrance that visitors are greeted with...

...to the refreshing currents of the ocean surrounding you, the unusual fauna, and the capricious flora that compliment the surrounding.

It doesn't matter where you come from. Mauna Loa is a restaurant where they serve exotic drinks, plates, prepared with delight for the most demanding taste buds, surrounded by a one of a kind atmosphere.

 
Normalmente me gusta hacer los traducciones para ustedes, por que es un forma de practica para que puedo escribir :lol:  
 
pero algunas veces me olvido,  
pero voy a tratar ayudar mas :D  
 

In the first line of the text, it's rincon instead of zincon (that word doesn't exist)...
rincon means hideaway.

Zeta,

No more shouting about politics past and present! How about some images of Tiki in Mexico? A 1966 photo from the Mauna Loa in Zona Rosa with a nice table view and a respectable Tiki in the background.

Thanks Dusty!

No politics. Ok. I'm apolitical really...

Where did you found this picture? Pretty cool! Never seen a table shot like that!

One for Zeta, a magazine ad plucked from Facebook today.
