Title: new Tiki bars in LA
there are lots of new Tiki bars around the globe
and we are really happy about that
But Los Angeles is about to break big with new
Tiki hot spots
Trader Vic's is (re) opening with a bang in
Downtown March 2009
(more on that later and on their Chicago
opening)
A lot has been said about the (re)opening of the
Beverly Hills Luau
Word on the Tiki streets is "don't expect
the grand Stephen Crane's Luau" treatment but you gotta pay
attention when they've hired Bamboo Ben to deck out the interior and
Beachbum Berry to advise and train the barstaff!
(at least the drinks will be good!)
I recently heard that they added the first real
tiki - carved by Tiki-Ray - and placed it in the front lobby for all
to see.
Foodies are all over this opening considering the
all star chef, and the recent photos make it look pretty
inviting:
