Hooters male equivalent plans to come to Houston

The restaurant says guests can expect great food and a really good time at Tally-whackers in Dallas.

HOUSTON – Since Hooters opened, men have come up with the "I just go for the hot wings" justification for flocking to the restaurant. Now, thanks to a new restaurant called Tallywackers, women have a little eye candy of their own.

Tallywackers opened in Dallas on Saturday.

Managers sifted through 125 applications before completing their 24-member all-male staff. The owner of the eatery, Rodney Duke, says he contemplated for 10 years why there wasn't a male equivalent to Hooters before he finally decided to create one.

Although the outfits of tight-fitting short shorts and tank tops are similar, there is an important distinction. Unlike Hooters, at Tallywackers, diners are given the opportunity to choose their waiter before being seated.

Currently, Tallywackers only has one location, in Dallas, but Duke says he plans to open an additional location in Houston in the future.
