Are restaurants serving up porn?

Not sure what this is, except a gimmick to increase traffic. But a few restaurants are using semi-nude models as table-decoration to serve their food.

It makes me feel much more at ease knowing that the surface of the models is required to be smooth and easily cleaned, as specified by the Florida Department of Business and
Professional Regulation.

Fla. restaurant adds fleshy fare to the menu


Updated 2d 2h ago


By Drew Sterwald, The (Fort Myers, Fla.) News-Press


PUNTA GORDA, Fla. — Gabrielle Patchell is a real dish.

The petite 5-foot-6 model lies on her back with her
long, blond hair splayed out on a table like an Asian
fan. Nearly nude but for a thong and strategically
placed leaves and artificial blossoms, she remains
stock-still as people pluck sushi pieces off of her
arms, legs and tummy.

"She's my platter that I get to put my food on," says
Brian Sung, sushi chef at Torch Bistro, Sushi and
Martini Bar in Punta Gorda.

Long considered a sleepy little hamlet, Punta Gorda
has joined the ranks of megacities such as New
York, Los Angeles and Miami in serving so-called
"naked sushi."

"I hope Punta Gorda is ready for it," quips Evelyn
Keller, a North Fort Myers, Fla., resident who had
stopped in for a more conventional dinner with friends.

Apparently it is.

The trio of chefs behind Torch — Shane Federici,
Jason Bush and sushi-roller Sung — say they've
booked at least one full-body sushi party a month
since they opened in January. With models costing
$100-$200 an hour, private parties can run
$300-$400 depending on how many guests attend
and how much food is ordered.

Torch also serves more Italian cuisine and American
comfort food, but the sexy sushi presentation is
what's attracting attention. A travel writer on AOL.
com ranked it second on a list of the "10 Most
Outrageous Restaurants" around the world —
between the No. 3 California eatery where patrons
dine in the dark and the No. 1 in Japan where
monkeys are the servers.

The practice formally known as nyotaimori is
intended to celebrate female beauty — though male
models also are available.

The Florida Department of Business and
Professional Regulation, which inspects restaurants
statewide, has no laws or license requirements
regarding the preparation or serving of sushi.

"Current law does require that all food contact
surfaces be smooth and easily cleaned," says DBPR
spokeswoman Alexis Antonacci Lambert.

Torch's models shower with antibacterial soap and
shave before they are made up, painted with Asian
symbols and decorated with flowers. The process
takes about 90 minutes.

Then, staffers carefully place volcano rolls and
spicy tuna rolls on top of leaves or seaweed sheets
on the models — the food doesn't actually touch
their skin. Patrons sit around the table, plucking
sushi with chopsticks, but aren't supposed to talk to
the models.

It's nothing new to Patchell, the 24-year-old sushi
model, gymnast and graduate student. She once
served as the vessel for an ice cream sundae buffet.
How does she manage to stay so still when she has
lily pads pressed into her armpits? Yoga skills help.

"I concentrate," she says. "I don't hear the
conversations going on."

Stuart Sanchez, 57, and his wife drove down from
Sarasota, Fla., for the special public demonstration.

"It's fantastic," Stuart Sanchez says. "I'm so surprised
to find it here."

I think we discussed this in another thread, and it's not new to the U.S. New York City jumped on the eat-off-a-nude-woman bandwagon a few years ago, though I'm sure Americans could care less about whether it's an "art" or not, not that there has to be an art excuse to eat off a nude woman (or man if that's your dining preference). I think it was even done in a scene in "Rising Sun" (which was '93).

I do find it objectionable in the sense that it dehumanizes the "server"/plate, not necessarily that they're nude. I've read that the models remain so still that to some it's like you're eating at a morgue, but I'm sure that's appealing to certain customers too...

You gotta hand it to the Japanese for being the culture creative enough to come up with this though. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

If "stroking the platter" isn't allowed, I'm not going near one of these places - I'd get in trouble

Yes, that troubles me some too.

Talk about a boring job though.

Can't scratch, burp or fart either.

As long as you ask nicely first, I think it may be OK!

I think they're like commemorative plates--really more for how they look than eating. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Would be fun to see the scramble for positions when a table full of guys are being seated.

"Oh, yes, waiter...I'll have the tits with a side order of....?

On this topic, there is a tendency among Vietnamese Coffee Shops in CA for the servers to be semi-nude - in bikinis or topless with pasties - and one of them in San Jose is known as a place where the servers will start doing table dances if the place is slow or the girls get bored or they're just wanting a bunch of tips, since even small groups of customers there tend to tip like crazy when the girls get on the tables to dance.

There's one in Garden Grove, CA too for those in Southern CA - with a similar dress code, though I don't know if they bust out with the table dancing.

The customers are almost all Asian. They don't block non-Asian customers but some people don't like going where they're the only person of their ethnicity, so...

Yes, IMO that is the type of entertainment that is best enjoyed in a relaxed atmosphere.

Any hint of racial induced tension will get in the way of that.
