Album: Sam's Seafood, R.I.P. 2006 Truely a Tiki haven! Sam's has a Polynesian revue weekly. But my favorite part has to be the 'postwar' feeling of Sam's; from the newspaper articles on the wall to the Mural in the bar, Sam's reflects the memories of our boys in the South Seas. It represents a moment in time. The bar, is unbelievable, and the hidden village, not to be missed. http://www.samsseafood.com/ Last change: 09/25/06

Album: Tiki- Ti Amazing mixology and Tiki Central friends took precedence over good photography- although we may receive a few more pix at a later date. Tiki-Ti is the pilgrimage that must be undertaken at least once in every Tikiphiles life ;-) as this is where genuine mixology lives on. As I told Oaktiki- the Tiki-Ti was worth every mile it took to get there! http://www.tiki-ti.com/ Last change: 09/30/05

Album: The Lucky Tiki- an enchanted drinking room! The Lucky Tiki in Mission Hills. As a stop on the California Coastal Crawl, we met up with a posse of Tikiphiles and had an enchanted evening!

Album: Purple Orchid, El Segundo, CA It all began as they "...always wanted a Tiki bar...". The Purple Orchid is Rebecca and Dave's Tiki dream come true; a friendly Tiki haven!
Most of the pictures we took are in the main bar area, but there is another room with pool tables- covered in purple felt, of course. And no visit to the Purple Orchid could be complete with a perusal of the bathrooms- wallpapered WITH pages from the "Book of Tiki". The Purple Orchid's signature mugs are a purple treat as well!
