Here's a bittersweet #tikithrowback memory from @thehukilau 2017 in the Tiki Treasure Bazaar. Former Hukilau partner and investor Michael Zielinski is spotted hanging out with @danieledallapola of @esoticomiami at Pier 66 in Fort Lauderdale. Sadly, we lost Mike to cancer late last year. His fun-loving spirit is something we all need right now. #tiki #hukilau #tikiweekend #esoticomiami #esotico

Tales goes online! ..... Posted @withregram • @tales_of_the_cocktail *EVENT UPDATE*
Tales of the Cocktail Foundation postpones its annual conference, Tales of the Cocktail®, and Spirited Awards® announcements and programming until September 2020. The conference will remain fully digital and will run from Monday, September 21 through Thursday, September 24.While we all continue to navigate the challenges presented to our industry during this global pandemic, we are also aware of the unique circumstances impacting the communities we serve.
As some bars in the United States (and around the world) begin to reopen in what historically is known as a slow season, we understand the increased challenges that travel restrictions and limited capacity pose on our entire industry. For more than 15 years, New Orleans has been a destination for our extended family, but this year our beloved city will feel distant too. We are taking the time to plan, so we can bring all of our communities closer. .

@maxstiki is having a very special Father’s Day

@maxstiki is having a very special Father’s Day sale Sunday at 7 pm. Don’t miss out! .......... Posted @withregram • @maxstiki We've spent almost all our time the past month getting Max's back open. It's a big endeavor to reopen a restaurant after being closed for three months, but we accomplished it! Even though we were closed, though, we never stopped making mugs in our studio during the shutdown. It's time to turn our attention to selling some of the mugs we've created.
We're releasing two new mugs, plus some Artist Proofs of other previously released mugs. Here are the two new mugs: "Pele" by Danielle Mann ($125)
This mug is based on a wood carving near the entryway to Max's dining room. The carving was done in the 1970's by famed tiki woodworker Guy Wilson. We sent Danielle a photo, and she created one unglazed mug based on the photo. She shipped it from her home in Australia and we made 50 copies, then came up with a glaze we thought would be perfect. We hope you like it. After these 50 sell out, that's it, no more. "Maxie and Minnie Maori" by Anthony Carpenter ($100 for the set)
Anthony illustrated these mug for us and we took it from there. Just for fun, we decided to release these two mugs as a set, one large (24 oz) and one small (3 oz). After numerous glaze tests, we finally got them the color we wanted and made 50 of these sets.
We will also have some test glaze editions of various other mugs including those from Big Toe, Gecko, and others. These will likely sell out quickly.
To view the mugs go to our website MaxsTiki.com and click on “Merchandise” in the drop down menu.
The sale goes live at 7 PM EST on Sunday, June 21 (Father's Day). Good luck to everyone, and thanks for supporting Max’s! #tiki #tikimug #tikimugs #supporthospitality #supportsmallbusiness #polynesianrestaurant
