Be shaken. Be stirred. A whimsical wham-bam of exotic enchantments, sleazy oddities, pop fancies, and swingin’ slingers broadcast from Ridgewood, NYC’s very own Shangri-Lounge. Best served chilled, garnished with signature swizzle schtick.

Sheena's should rent a magic bus, and we can do shows from the road, stopping at various tiki bars along the way, broadcasting from those too.

@Martinibomb: Is the tiki bar on Interstate, The Alibi Room still around that you know of? Or did covid and the Boojie hipster occupation kill it?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:39pm
Rich in Washington:

I used to run things to and from the print shop across the street and stop there for 'lunch'.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:39pm
Rich in Washington:

Selda!
  6:39pm
Martinibomb:

The Alibi is up and running or was.. I've seen people there. They set up an outdoor section. BUT - they never had a great outdoor space tho. I think they should take over the car lot on the other side - dunno why they aren't
  6:40pm
Martinibomb:

My roommate's band Galaxy Trio played there in the 90s before Karaoke killed the Alibi for DJs and Bands. That was a KILLER show. I have photos
Avatar 6:44pm
shangri-lounge:

the tiki bar resurgence -especially here- is just a bunch of tropical cocktail bars. generally speaking. abe's pagoda bar in Bushwick is a very good exception to that rule, I would say.

But I wanna travel to some OG spots. Maybe in the next couple of years. I hope!

I haven't been in there in over a decade, but I thought The Alibi had a wonderful tiki atmosphere, at least decor-wise.

and i live vicariously through him. and his home bar spotlights. but i wish he'd wear a mask a bit more...
  6:52pm
Martinibomb:

Hale Pele is the one I'm worried will close. The Alibi looks cool etc.. and they have karaoke plus it can get wild in there. BUT the drinks SUCK and terrible food. Hale Pele on the other hand... voted best tiki drinks in the USA and I agree. Super good! And the food is by this Hawaiian guy that used to have a cart in my hood. Super good! ANd they have a volcano that goes off every :30min. I love it.

the reasonable solution is to give me all of of jeff bozo's "net worth", and he can have mine. then i will keep these places afloat until they become profitable again.
i'll start a petition.

Do you know that there are no pictures in existence of a young Abe Vigoda? I actually tried to find one. He was born old. That's the only explanation.

Enjoying the show, as I drop in and out during dinner. Watching some early election results on Deutsche Welle, German channel, so I can't understand a lot of it, which is good. Good to keep it (Enoch) light.

there once was an ice-cream/smoothie/juice bar here that had the best ice-cream on earth. (i know this because i really don't care about ice-cream and hadn't eaten it in years until i tried hers) several of them had fresh liquor in them, the bottles of which would sometimes be brought from under the counter when there wasn't actually any ice-cream being made.
