That drooling bastard statue is honestly one of my favorite tiki icons. It's just so effing adorable and hilarious.

Marie was kind enough to make me her Italian zombie one evening when I asked her to make me something she liked. I loved it. Very delicious! Glad Tonga Hut is getting back on its feet here. I wish them the best of luck!

I was living in Long Beach CA and drove down PCH one day and saw that a closed Tiki restaurant had reopened as Don the Beachcomber's! I was lucky enough to have dinner there. It was fabulous of course! I even went to the one in Hollywood when I was in my 20s. I'll be in LA soon and I'm heading to the Tonga Hut!

OMG. I have almost that exact same enameled-steel conical fireplace. Same color, even. My parents had it in a mountain cabin in Pinetop, AZ. Loved it. When they started renting it out, the realtor made them put in a Ben Franklin stove. We took the orange fireplace back to Tucson. Still have it. Did you know the color gets Cherry Red when it's overheated?

Those fireplaces were iconic and ubiquitous at ski resorts and ski vacation homes (usual A-frames) across the upper lake states - Minnesota, Wisconsin, and the U.P. of Michigan in the late 1960’s thru mid 70’s. As a kid I wanted one bad in our house. Unfortunately it wasn’t my parents choice of decor lol - “hell no” yells my dad. Ha ha ha.

The challenge should be to drink all of the Grog Log drinks in a month!
@glasshalffull2930 9 ай бұрын
Ven Tiki, Ventura CA, has a similar drink challenge of about 80 drinks. Prize is a fez hat. Anyway, each day a woman would do 4 drinks at lunch, go home and sleep and then come back and do four drinks in the afternoon. I think she took a few days off, but finished the challenge in about two weeks. A little crazy, but an Impressive feat.
