Pink Taco Restaurant

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - The name of a new restaurant in Scottsdale is stirring up some trouble. The Las Vegas-based Pink Taco Mexican Restaurant is scheduled to open its second location in downtown Scottsdale in June.



Nearly half a dozen people in the upscale city recently expressed their objection to the name, claiming it's a derogatory slang term for a portion of the female anatomy.

In late April, the city received four e-mails, three of which bore no names, objecting to the restaurant's name.

One of those e-mails stated: "The City of Scottsdale has a very fine reputation around the world. Let's keep the standards high. Let's let what plays in Vegas stay in Vegas."

Scottsdale Mayor Mary Manross has said she is offended by the name and went so far as to ask the owner to change it, although he refused.

Restaurant spokeswoman Lisa Perez said the company's name comes from one of its menu items.

Perez said the company has not received any complaints or objections about its name.

The original Pink Taco is inside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

The Scottsdale City Council is scheduled to decide Monday whether to recommend the restaurant get a liquor license. If granted, the restaurant's application would then be sent to the state liquor board for review.

I'd eat there at least once a day.

Other business names under consideration by the Scottsdale city council:

Perky Nips Fine Italian Cuisine

Fat Sweaty Guy With A Huge Massive Erection Croissants & Bagels


On a more serious note, apparently there is a restaurant (or club ?) in New York called Lava Gina..lol

Vegetarian: "Excuse me, waiter...I have a question about this taco I ordered..."

Waiter: "Ahh...yes. You ordered the 'Virgin Taco', the one that comes with no beef.
Is there a problem?"

Vegetarian: "Not really I guess...it just seems to be stuffed with alot of cucumber."

Waiter: "Well, many times..." leaning in, whispering "...curiosity can get the best of them, you know..."
