'Maxim' to Feed Fat, Horny Tourists?
Restaurant blog Eater reports that Jeffrey Chodorow's midtown eatery English Is Italian may be getting quite the makeover:
From a well-placed source: "I heard that English Is Italia is going to be changed once again to "The Maxim Club." They're working [with] the magazine and they want to make [the venue] into, and I quote this anonymous source, "a high-end Hawaiian Tropic club."
That's a bit of an oxymoron, isn't it? But if anyone can master the moron, it's Maxim. Just imagine a Hooters with tons of video games and Christopher Hitchens passed out at the bar. It'll truly be something of beauty.
