themedellinmap.com - Hooters, Medellin Royal

HOOTERS
Tastefully tacky, pretty young things wearing hot pants and providing excellent service have created a bit of a buzz in Medellin.

But, make no mistake, there are no slutty bimbos to be found in Hooters. Instead of pole-dancing and wet t-shirt contests, prepare yourself for choreographed dances and cringe worthy birthday chants.

Yet, despite the innocent reality, Hooters girls are still faced with the bleak task of keeping a restaurant full of lecherous men under control and as a result a bond is formed between them.

Indeed, jealous squabbling, childish backstabbing and allegations of table thieving aside, Hooters girls watch each others backs and it's not uncommon to see them partying together in Parque Lleras after work hours.

Just don't get too close and expose yourself to an impromptu chant of the 'pollo' song, which usually requires the innocent bystander to stand on a chair and sing the final verse alone.

MEDELLIN ROYAL
The new boy in town always goes out of his way to be friendly and Medellin Royal is no exception.

While other upmarket hotels may suffer from a little complacency, it's clear from its mirrored glass exterior, that Medellin Royal embraces the new, energetic, stylish and squeaky clean face of the city.

The staff are very friendly and the service is excellent without being over the top and annoying.

For those only seeking a little poolside action with a jacuzzi, Medellin Royal currently offers a Dia de Sol service including a three course meal for 35,000 pesos on weekends and public holidays.

We don't know what other delights are in store, but after this review, perhaps they will invite us to find out.

Copied and pasted from the 10 things not to say to a "Hooters Girl."

6. "Do you have a boyfriend? He must hate that you work here!"
Yes, I do, and no, he doesn't. You see, I have chosen to be with a man who does not suffer from the crippling insecurities that you do, nor does he possess the frighteningly high levels of jealousy and rage that you have.

Perhaps the OP would like to comment?

I have been to the new Hooters several times and only witnessed men behaving as gentlemen. The vast majority of tables were occupied by couples enjoying the new place in town.

Like every Hooters, the food sucks and the service is fantastic.

I havent seen any jealous boyfriends yet...

Fair point... 'lecherous' was a little over the top...

On a philosophical note... not sure if a man can be a gentlemen and something close to lecherous at the same time
