Agreed. We think their food is bad. But I imagine that others are quite happy about this place going up.

I'm on my computer, that may be the difference. Such different experience when you're on the phone. Just went to edit/ delete/save. Might also be time sensitive. I did it as soon as I saw my pic wasn't getting through.

I prefer older well kept ladies. Better chance they’ll show up for their shift.

The place is exactly as one would envision it. I'm not disputing they'll probably be successful in TV, but the place gives me the creeps.

Then again, I've never been all that enthralled by boobs.
Seriously, there's not one thing on their menu that would be classified as good. I know, my former company used to be one of their suppliers and I know the quality they demanded.

Their clientele are there for one reason - to look at the girls - certainly not for the food.

Default Flipping Paradigm

Rumor has it the restaurant is changing up. In order to increase profits they are changing their waitress staff to waiters. It will service the largest and growing women clientele here in the Villages. Thunder Down Under dancers from Las Vegas will be the waiters for the grand opening.

Default From the website of Hooters

Hardly, lol.

This is straight from the Hooters website.

“ Sometimes you hit on a big idea by accident—just by putting the stuff you love all in one place. Craveable food, cold beer, and all the sports you could possibly watch on wall-to-wall big screen TVs. And let’s not forget the Hooters Girls. It all seems so simple, we can’t believe nobody else ever thought of it.”

The restaurant’s founding focus was and always has been on testosterone: sports, food, beer and hot girls.

Holding a victim mentality makes a person lose happiness and joy.

When you stop choosing to be offended over everything, life is far better.

As an aside, you have yet to blame the patriarchy and white privilege, you are slipping.

I thought sexually harrassing women was passé and offensive but if that has changed suddenly, let us all know.

The gals who want to work in suggestive clothing invite that treatment, I get that... anything for chump change.

Does the villages still send out those yearly resident surveys they used to do? They asked questions about what shopping, food or bar establishments, and grocery stores people would like to see come to the villages. I always requested Hooters, The Tilted Kilt, Top Shooters, and even Twin Peaks brand restaurants. I'm sure I left out another one!
