NO BIKINIS ALLOWED

Boosting business by having waitresses wear the barest minimum are a trademark of restaurants like Hooters and Tilted Kilt. However, in Thailand, the wrong outfit has resulted in restaurant owner Phung Van Quang being fined VND 40 million (about $3000 NZD). Quang had waitresses dressed in tiny red bikinis to serve drinks to customers. Inspectors visited the restaurant in Hanoi after photos circulated online of the waitresses. The government said that the fine was imposed to punish the restaurant for behaving in a way that is “against Vietnam’s traditional culture”. Photo: FoxNews.
