Scottsdale restaurant releases all-male employee calendar

Jan 31, 2014, 12:53 PM | Updated: 12:54 pm

PHOENIX — A Scottsdale restaurant is pushing back against the growing trend of “breastaurants,” or restaurants with an all-female staff clad in scanty costumes.

Pasta Brioni has had an all-male wait staff for years that is featured in an annual calendar.

“For the last 20 years or so, we’ve noticed we have hunky Italian waiters,” said owner Mike Siggins.

He said the calendar is meant to be a fun way to differentiate his restaurant from others in the area. Photos are taken in the eatery.

Unlike calendars marketed by restaurants such as Twin Peaks and Tilted Kilt, the calendar is free. Patrons can simply stop in and ask for one.

We want to hear from you.
