Stopped by Tiki Ti last night for a couple of $5 Ray's Mistakes. Met Sven, Naomi and A-Frame was there. The place was jumping by 9:00. Lots of talk about the new mug.
Sounds like there should be a good crowd for a pre-party on Saturday before the Tiki Farm event at La Luz De Jesus.

Just a friendly reminder, a warm warning: My neighborhood Tiki Bar (and inspiration to me and Mr. Berry) will go on their customary holiday hiatus after this Saturday!
This means no Tiki Ti til next year! (...except a little in between the holidays I think)
Go while you can!

We took my sister and her fiancé to Tiki Ti yesterday for their first time (they ordered a Ray's Mistake and an Uga Booga), then off to Trader Vic's (they've got a new menu..in the bar area at least). followed by Tiki No, and finishing off at Tonga Hut. It was a great evening.

BigTikiDude told me I shouldn't be posting crawl dates without letting the target bars know first. Since I was already drinking in nearby K-Town last night, I decided to drop into the Tiki-Ti.
I met Mike Sr. at the door and gave him the heads up, he confirmed they'll be open for business that part of Sept and said to come on down. 
It was TC Wednesday but I didn't see anyone I knew except for Dr. G (that's "G" not "Z").
I don't think I've ever been into Tiki-Ti on a Wednesday before (yes, I know). The joint was jumping with $5 Ray's Mistakes. When Mike Jr. rang the bell at 9pm, the loud festivity immediately halted and everyone paused in quiet reverence to toast Ray Buhen. I was impressed.
So what's new at the Ti? Well they have a wind-up bull that they send wobbling down the bar that's now part of the Blood and Sand "Toro Toro" ritual. Also an Umami Burger just opened up down the street near Vermont !!
Mmmmm....

Hey I saw this in the latest issue of Tiki Magazine so I guess it's official...
Tiki-Ti 50th Anniversary
April 28, 2011
"While they'll be celebrating all week long, the 'official' 50th anniversary of the world-famous Tiki-Ti will most definitely bring out the Tiki royalty on April 28th."
And as a twofer, Los Straightjackets and the Insect Surfers will be playing the Redwood later that evening (if you're able to make it out of the Ti in condition to drive that is).

Actually this Wednesday night will be the 50th anniversary if you stay there until just after midnight.
Happy 50th, Tiki-Ti !!

I'm going thurs. early, to beat the crowds.
then heading over to the Redwood in Downtown
for Insect Surfers, and Los Straitjackets.

I will probably go Saturday, as work and jury duty will likely prevent me from getting there earlier. If it looks like I can get Thursday or Friday off, then I'll go then. Wednesday is pretty much out.
