anyone hear about this?

by Mike M » Thu May 07, 2009 9:12 pm

I have heard a few people talking about a Hooters style concept opening in Louisville, not sure if it is the first of it's kind or not, I had also heard the wait staff will be topless, first of all how does that jive with health codes? Also heard it's gonna be in the east end near many churches..also a no no if I remember right..I had originally heard the name was going to be Hooks...but can't find anything in my searches..

That can't be right, can it? First I've heard of such a thing.

I do hope that if this is true, that the person doing the hiring has some taste.

Topless wait staff.....male or female?

Apparently, male wait staff (per Annemarie's post, supra)

Pass.

i recently was talking to someone who mentioned this in passing. he told me it will be a hooters type, but the only difference it will be men servers. hence the topless. i'm not going to state this a fact because i don't know where he got his information from. i'm only stating what i heard. take it for what it's worth.

You know, I'm open-minded, but I just don't see this as something that would really make me want to go dine there ... :P

Again, depending on the taste of the person doing the hiring, it might be a location for critical aesthetic comparison. I could imagine it with a Roman Empire interior design with a Wednesday night poetry slam. I guess I'm being to Felliniesque. Does anyone recall the movie Satyracon?

well I could only assume when I heard this that the wait staff would be female, now I'm just disturbed, either way I'm not to excited for this concept, I can now only think of that scene from Bachelor Party when Tom Hanks sent the mother in law a hot dog..
