Ladies ? No Heels, No Service - Portland Food and Drink

A local bar/restaurant is on the defensive this week after posting a new dress code that mandated ?must have heels? for female patrons. According to Huffington Post,

ProAbition, located about an hour outside Los Angeles in Riverside, California,?posted a flyer for its Twenties-themed opening?with the following dress code:

No tennis shoes. No baggy attire. No sports hats. No hooded sweaters. No t-shirts. Ladies: No flat shoes or sandals. Must have heels. (Exception will be made if injured.)

The uproar on Facebook was enough that ProAbition posted a response later that day, defending the policy:

We have put a lot of time, money, and effort into creating ProAbiton; and we wish to create and maintain an atmosphere that is consistent with our vision. With that, we believe the people ? our customers, and friends that come to ProAbtion are the biggest part of that atmosphere. That is why we have a dress code ? to promote and maintain this atmosphere for the enjoyment of all.

Actually, I kind of like the idea of a Twenties-themed nightclub ? but then I wouldn?t have to wear heels. Twenties drinks, atmosphere, cocktails ? I?d be there in top hat and tails.

"I have a wide-range of food experience - working in the restaurant industry on both sides of the house, later in the wine industry, and finally traveling/tasting my way around the world. Whether you agree or disagree, you can always count on my unbiased opinion. I don't take free meals, and the restaurants don't know when, or if, I am coming."
