Here is the tiki bar on the side of my home in Orlando Florida.
The bar was supposed to be called "Mahoe Lama" which is Hawaiian for "Twin Torches" since
the bar has two torches installed on the awning. I ordered the sign on the Internet and the lady
got the words wrong and it actually says "Mahoe Lana" which loosely means "Twin Peaks" or "Twin Boobs".
I did not notice it at all. My wife noticed the error after I had already mounted the sign. It was so funny and made such a good story we decided to keep it. Here are a few pics.
There are more pictures here: Mahoe Lana Tiki Bar

I think that is a great way to remember him, every time you have a drink it will be in his memory.

Hi Everyone 
I'm new to TC (What a GREAT place!)
I've been working on my backyard Tiki Lounge Bar for about 6 weeks and I am almost finished. I really haven't thought of a name for it. Maybe you guys can help me think of one. Here are some pics to give you an idea of what it looks like. As you can see, my dog Barlow has already moved in.
Thanks!

Seems like it should be called The Barlow Lounge.

Tipsy, I hear ya. Working on Hapa Haole Hideaway 3 now. Here is a progress pic:
Tearing out the old closet and found lots of water and termite damage. If it weren't for siding, we'd have no wall! One day, this will be the Tapa Room, and no more cat door in the window...

Well, I HAVE been leaning toward "The Friki Tiki Bar".
I just saw a name VERY close to that posted here so
I MAY be changing it, we'll see.
Other possibilities:
Kalika's ? (Chris' ?)
The Lala Lounge (tribute to Lala of Tiki Bar TV fame)
The Taco Tiki Hut (mentioned in the new B-52s
single, "Funplex", it's a made-up "food court eatery")
The Martin Den(ny) (tribute to... you'll figure it out)
others that I haven't thought about yet

The name of my tiki bar is The Kahiki Klub. I built it in 2001, last year I redid the bar in mahogany and this year I'm re-thatching the roof and replacing the "Klub" pool. Here are a couple of photos, and you can watch a live web cam of the renovation at http://www.kytrakennels.com/cam
Cheers
