The Tiki Time Warp Pa'ina Krewe took the party outdoors for the only (as far as we know) "Room" Party of the Paradise Point Tiki Oasis Takeover.
In response to the COVID pandemic we named the party GRAB & GO to encourage people to move around with their social pod and not congregate. We moved the party outdoors to help with social distancing and airflow. We set up the bar with a see-thru (kinda) plastic barrier, to give the Krewe and the guests a level of comfort from direct contact, as to promote safety against the virus..

Grilled Julia Huli Hulia Beef
- Smokeless grilled cubes with our secret house-made Huli Huli sauce drizzle & Sesame seeds
Grilled Pineapple
- Smokeless grilled chunks with Vanilla Lime Cordial drizzle
The Cream Shots - (called minibeer 43 on Licor43 website) were a huge favorite for people waiting in line. You can find the recipe on the Licor43 website here
This cocktail is a riff on the Pineapple Milk from Ralph Brennan's restaurant in Downtown Disney Anaheim.
This is a riff on the Painkiller from Pusser's Rum in British Virgin Islands. It adds some Barbancourt Pango rum to a traditional Painkiller.
The Grilled Beef skewer was drizzled in our secret Huli Huli sauce, and sprinkled with black and white sesame seeds.
This was to offer a vegetarian option for a snack. The grilled pineapple was drizzled in a Vanilla Lime Cordial.

We believe we were the only "room" party, and the Pa'ina Krewe all did an AMAZING job pulling off a FUN event.

Licor 43 was an amazing sponsor. The Cream Shots were a HUGE hit as they were before. We actually served some with coffee to a few people later. Licor43
DJ Will Torres provided music at the pool across the road, but, people still came by for more drinks and snacks during his set.
The bar looked great in the dark.
We tried to do what we could to support the social distancing recommendations.
