New Hooters (Thailand) Franchise Opening At Meechok Plaza

[BarnicaleBob]

This might be just a tid bit off topic but having been duped by all this, I went to the plaza the other day looking for any sign of the Hooters and stopped in Kelly's to see if Rob had heard anything about it. I was very happy to see that during the past week or so Rob had totally remodeled Kelly's making room for more seating, adding a glass front and installing AC so it will be cool when the hot season comes. Very nicely done Rob.

Could he do a wood decor with orange accents, and hire a couple more cute staff? Before end of April, that's allegedly when the real Hooters kicks off.

Opening hours for this place?

Got their #?

Its not true, its BS, there isn't going to be an Hooters at Mee Chok. Great joke WTK can't believe how many people are still thinking its really happening after almost a week

See, you just mention BOOBS and no matter how many times we say it's a joke, that's all that some people will ever see

Sadie!!!

Come on, I have a couple more pictures left that I need to go through to wrap things up, and show what could have been / the apparently clear business opportunity.

There are still a few old style Thai cantinas north of Mae Jo University with better looking and better dressed women, better food, and better entertainment.

You mean like this?

Someone should tell them (and the clientele) that this is not the 1950's anymore.

Hooters....

Is Wendy's actually coming to the area or is that also in fun? Not a big Hooters fan (would be rough living in Asia if I were) but Wendy's...

[WinnieTheKhwai]

No Wendy's.

The Smirnoff -5 degree Ice Lounge however ....

With Smirnoff Pretties...

WTK this has to be one of the better leg pulls in the pass couple years. I take my hat off to you.:jap: If anybody would take the time to research such as the Hooters website for foreign franchise location availability you should have noticed that Thailand is not listed.

Large billboard advertising and adverts to recruit staff for one happened in Patong recently.. Not sure if it ever launched (couldnt find the staff ) but it was being started. Remember press releases and the Thai franchiser being 'wings and things'.. Think it might have pulled out when jungceylon plaza got delayed (which is further back then I think the billboard was so not sure). So a real franchise operation / license is here for this.

Not to say this is real tho.

I personally thank if Hooters was to come to Thailand that it could be a success in the correct community.

Got a picture from the promo material.

Nothing else to add to this post ... just wanted to see the picture again

They are all nice looking. But the girl down center has kind of an alien look going on.

There is an actual WENDY's hamburgers opening in CM? Or is it unrelated?

With all the tail around the country, not so worried about Hooters... but Wendy's.... worth moving to CM.

If someone can get a Papa Johns pizza up there, I'm on my way.
