Well with both, the car parts store and the appliance store across the street being out of business, there is now PLENTY of parking. Just don't get caught jaywalking.

Nothing like a little local knowledge to solve the parking problem. I always feel like I'm playing that Froger game with my life when jaywalking that street. Seems easier going in then when coming out as well.

Yeah, the one good effect of the bad economy: ample Tiki Ti parking..

When we were there last month, we took the Red Line subway and walked the 3 blocks from the station (about 10 minutes). Fast and easy, and no driving intoxicated.

I'm looking for hotel suggestions that are somewhat close to Tiki Ti.
Very economical is a factor and yet not a lot of one hour guests and needle
users would be preferred.

Nice work Chub!
It's cool to see the torch burning and in July! The Tiki head is already missing from the roof, I'd assumed it was stolen in the 90's for some reason.
I've heard a rumor that Tiki Diablo is going to make one to replace it so hopefully someday he will.
Before New Years would be good.

by the way some Sad News kinda related,
and I'm surprised Coco Joe didn't post it.
Coco Joe texted me that the Pioneer chicken across the street.
my favorite place to eat, before drinking at the Tiki Ti.
has closed. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
although there is one a few miles down Sunset Blvd. Near Silverlake area.
but I have been there twice and it wasn't quite as good.
sad news indeed.

Well hey, Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles is only 2.5 miles away at 1514 N Gower St, Hollywood.
They stay open late for your post Tiki-Ti drunk food needs. You don't even have to get in your car, just catch a bus going west on Sunset.

Well, I guess the nearby hospital emergency room will have less business now.
