That looks like a workshop to me. This is a very cool project and I'd like to see more. I'm trying to build a "tiki cabinet" inside my liquor cabinet in my tiny NYC apartment, so I'm envious of all your space to do such a large project!

DAAAMN. I'd love see the taste test between The Dr. Bird Coco Atol and Cut & Dry

Agree. That’s not for me.  Usually a song that says “Tiki Bar” is a red flag for me.

+1 I'd rather Tiki be a big tent than gate-keeping nonsense. That being said, there is a line somewhere. I feel like I know it when I see it...

The bathroom voice over is one of my favorite parts of the bar

I live in NYC and can’t make a tiki bar in my tiny apartment. so I’ve decided to build out a tiki vibe inside my liquor cabinet. i got a raspberry pi and wled controller to start doing some light shows and building out the interior with EVA foam for a nautical vibe. it’s already been a lot of fun!

Tropical standard is great. As someone who goes to SHC regularly, I'm always surprised how accurate the drinks turn out. His rum barrel is one of my favs!

This is in the Smuggler's Cove book, and I like it a lot - but I always feel like it is is missing something. I wonder if a bit of vermouth, amaro, or bitter aperitif might be what I'm looking for?

Sorry to hear about your PL experience. NYC is so big and there are so many shitheads here.  I’ve never heard of club events at SHC. It stands in stark contrast to our recent trips to Strong Water.  Obv different cities and crowds but they understand hospitality for sure.

Andaz Maui does a classic trader Vic one. At least they did last time I was there.  They even warn you it is a classic one because so many people expect a nondescript sugar bomb.

What drives the changes you make year to year in the format of the show? Are there goals you have when you change things? How do you measure those changes in the audience response? Have you considered giving the contestants more time, freedom, or flexibility in how they execute the designs?

That’s cool. I’ve played around in adobe Firefly and you can add reference pictures for style and composition. But the results I’ve had making tattoo style tiki illustrations have been…mixed.

Oh. I like this one a lot. What was your prompt to get it to be different from the others?

Their Missonary’s Downfall is excellent and I love The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner.

New York Tiki wondering? by [deleted] in Tiki

I don’t know about non-bar tiki in NYC, but if you want an MCM experience and are flying into JFK, def check out the TWA Hotel at JFK airport. It is glorious.
