Sit around a grand piano, in a space covered in papier-mâché or under bright neon in the Tiki Tiki room. The whole place is kitted out with crazy kitsch memorabilia brought back from the owner s travels: a wall of Barbies and dinosaurs, a rocking horse that doubles up as a seat, vintage furniture that s been given a spray-paint revamp.
