Hooters in Beijing; Preparing for the Olympic Games
Let the Games begin: Hooters in Beijing
COMMENTARY

With the Olympic Games only 11 months away, Beijing officials are busily crossing off items on their to-do lists as they await the onslaught of media, tourists and sports fans.
Refurbishing the airport? Check.
Beefing up security? Check.
Opening up a Hooters? Check.
That’s right. On Wednesday, the first Hooters restaurant officially opened its doors in the capital city. The Atlanta-based restaurant chain, known for its spicy Buffalo wings and scantily clad servers, has three other restaurants in China.
According to one report, the grand opening was marked by loud rock music, plenty of cold beer and a score of young Chinese “Hooters Girls” doing the hokey-pokey in the clingy low-cut tank tops and high-cut shorts.
There was no report if the menu included Buffalo egg rolls.
