This Oakland News follow-up to this blogger's post about Tiki Tom's Restaurant and its owner Tom Davies in what turned out to be the last video of the restaurant and the only one with his boat in it: Tom Davies, AKA Tiki Tom, is still missing. Here's the video:
No one has, to this writing, seen Tiki Tom. The restaurant burned down in a fire that caused $750,000 worth of damage. In reading the Yelp reviews, Tiki Tom's reputation was marred by a large party that was describes as "attended by thugs." It seems that party marred Tiki Tom's already spotty rep, and led to the decline in patronage.
But Tom is missing.
This blogger had a great time at Tiki Tom's and is sorry to see the place go. Running a business is hard, especially an eatery, where there are always thousands of critics. But if you do one food dish well, and treat everyone nice, they'll come back. Whatever happened at Tiki Tom's would seem to have been "fixable," but maybe Tom didn't think so.
Something happened. Just what, exactly is best known by Tom himself.
