I think what really won me over was the lovely story behind their trademark Magdalena wine & the fact that Magdalena still works @ the Winery to this day!
Super super interesting & totally worth the trip, it was absolutely crazy to see a winery in the middle of Downtown LA! + the free tastings totally added to the enjoyment.
While the $4 cocktails were what was advertised on "the list" the true winners of the night were the Electric Ice Tea, the Roast Toast Almond, and the S.M.U.R.F. which was some concoction of blue & cream.
Served in a tiki cup, reminiscent of Duffy's in St. Thomas, this fruity concoction was superb, and a perfect nightcap for a lovely evening of knocking Silverlake bars off the "list."
The bar itself was also a delight. While still filled with dirty hipsters, it reminded me of Happy Endings, and not the ghetto Hollywood one, the seedy NYC bar.
Based on the youtube video I'd found on this ridiculous drink, I was already wary before ever setting foot in Tiki Ti.
That said, this drink was delicious, and the presentation was amazing. Toro Toro Toro!!
Something I swore I'd never do because of an LA Times Article I'd read a while back about competitors peeing in each others Hot Dog Buckets...
But drunkedness and hunger won out & I forced myself to choke down a few bites. Just so I can say, yes I've done it.
p.s. White Sauce? Totally just mayo in a squeeze bottle.
Thanks to the incredible Kacie Kane, finally dragged my ass out to Silverlake to see some stand-up and knock a ton of things off "the list"
4 in one night. Can't be done you say? WRONG.
The Medicina Latina, absolutely delicious. And that's considering I'm not a tequila fan. Although I would recommend it without the salt rim.
Get her did. And that we did.
Thanks to the lovely groupon website, we even got a deal on knocking this doozy off the list. My favorite part of the tour, however, had to be when we all unloaded on some random guy's front lawn, only to see a delorean parked across the street.
