Yes, I know...a (fairly) local bar just won a court case involving this.
They've got their signs posted, they don't have any EVIL ashtrays, their patrons smoke, and the bars DO NOT have to ask them to leave.
But I still don't go out much anymore. I can shake up a mighty fine martini right in the comfort of my own home. I do feel sorry for the young singles out there, though...tough to have a good time when Nanny's watching.
Regards,
The whole thing is going worldwide, nothing like a Central American cantina though, only thing they worry about is can you afford the next cervesa.
