  1. are other resaurant chains not lgbt friendly? and if not, how so?
  2. Why is it important as to whether a restaurant is LGBT FRIENDLY or not? ALL restaurants and business should equally accept and be friendly to ALL customers. regardless of who they are.
  3. Why does it make a difference as to whether a restaurant is LGBT FREINDLY or not? ALL restaurants as well as ALL business should be equally welcoming and friendly to ALL customers, regardless of who they are.
  4. Not so sure I am all that much in favor of the DRAG QUEEN DInner shows or the DINNER WITH THE DIVAS thing. I am all in favor of the rest, which is treating everyone equally. The DRAG QUEEN and DIVA DINNER SHOW is what will stir the controversy.
  5. Awesome news. It will draw attention to the area and force business owners along Bay Street to clean up the industrial buildings that they are sitting on in speculation.
  6. Fantastic that some use will be made of the old Omega since that's a very visible corner. On the other hand, I find 1/2 lb burgers excessive and would prefer a quarter pound with a lot of toppings. Given the rampant obesity out there, that might just be me. While not personally LGB or T, I'll personally check the place out due to considerable curiosity about what could possibly make a burger joint "LGBT friendly".
  7. It's funny because out of the gays/lesbians I know, most of them are really healthy eaters and probably wouldn't be caught dead eating a half-pound artery-clogger. I too, wonder what will make this stand out as LGBT-friendly...seems like it would do more to drive some business away than to bring people in. But, I guess I really wouldn't know.
  8. Thak god. For too long we have had to put up with only LGB freindly hamburger joints. Try being a T and trying to order a hamburger anywhere in this city. Up until now that has been impossible. The harrassment of T's at hamburger joints is well documented and has been goin on for too long....thank god our nightmare is over.
  9. This is great news. That empty lot has been an eyesore for years. Welcome aboard.
  10. What is LGBT Friendly? Sorry I am blonde.
