Hooters In Tel Aviv

The Hooters restaurant chain, known for waitresses in low-cut blouses and short skirts, will open its first branch in Israel this summer, in the Mediterranean seaside city of Tel Aviv.

"I strongly believe that the Hooters concept is something that Israelis are looking for," Ofer Ahiraz, who bought the Hooters franchise for Israel, told Reuters. "Hooters can suit the Israeli entertainment culture."

Ahiraz said it would not open restaurants near large religious populations, and they would not be kosher.
