The moneybackers behind the new Cleveland Horseshoe Casino no doubt want you to think their target customer market is all those twenty and thirtysomething young professionals with stylish duds, the right credentials, and cash to piss, because we all know that demographic really actually totally does exist outside of promotional brochures and teeth whiting commercials. But real talk, who’s going to be filling up the Cleveland casino?
Bros.
At least, that apparently is the customer base in the cross-hairs at the Tilted Kilt, the new restaurant filling in the old Fat Fish Blue location, hoping to capitalize on the run off business from the Higbee site. Seeing how Cleveland already has a short-skirt staffed bar near the casino, some market researcher must have figured the Horseshoe’s clientele will be high enough in guys who haven’t had a meaningful experience with a woman since the Hooters closed in Parma to justify the investment.

Be forewarned! Don’t patronize The Tilted Kilt for the food or the service. I ate at the one in Louisville, KY last year and both aspects were mediocre to poor. And if you’re going for the scenery, you’ll also have to be prepared for “cast members” who have no business wearing that particular costume.
I’m pretty cynica myselfl, but damn–we at least need to give them a try
Wasn’t Breastaurant one of the words on the Mayan Calendar too?
Nice piece…um…story…good for a few titters, anyway.
Not that I’ll ever set foot…or anything else…inside this establishment…or have any need to. If I want to see what all these punks are jonesing for, all I have to do is roll over…sorry, kids…
