A Dress Code in a Restaurant with Plastic Tablecloths?

»

Chubby Hubby is a little surprised about the new dress code at a neighborhood restaurant and even more shocked by the alleged rude behaviour by the owner's wife.

Last night, our friends went to La Fiandra, only to be insulted and shocked beyond belief. According to them, after having been seated, the owner’s wife surprised them by informing them that there was now a dress code at the restaurant, and if they wanted to be served, since the husband was wearing a t-shirt, shorts and tevas, she would prefer it if they could sit out in the courtyard. Our friends apologized for not knowing about the "new" dress code but asked if this time—and seeing as they were regular patrons—might eat inside. To their amazement, according to them, the owner’s wife rather rudely informed them that when dining in her restaurant, she would like them "to follow her rules".

Chubby Hubby went to his pal's rescue; I tried the restaurant today and found the owners an extremely nice couple. I mentioned the chubby hubby post and they were shocked although they'd heard it before. Apparently the bloke was wearing a singlet type top - I know we dress casually, but that still does not give a grown man the right to dress like that in a restaurant. Anyway, I wonder if chubby checked out his pal's story before slamming the poor restaurant; he obviously can afford expensive hotels and restaurants and does not have to work as hard for his living as this couple who are trying to make a go of a small business. Our government insists on its right to reply and yet this couple were not given any chance to present their side of the story?!
