This is a loophole for strip clubs.
With that being said the club has all the proper permits you can’t stop them and a judge agreed.
The owner of Club Onyx, a strip club that tried to reopen as a restaurant in the early hours of Friday morning, filed for and won a temporary restraining order against the city of Houston to prevent another shutdown.
The club reopened for just minutes Friday morning before the Houston Police Department and the Fire Marshal’s Office raided the club and shut down the reopening.
Langan says the club’s kitchen fired up just as it did before the pandemic.
“They can take off their clothes if they want to, but I didn’t know the virus is spread through being naked. If it is then I’m in trouble,” said Langan with a chuckle.
The club said it would follow all the state guidelines and health recommendations of social distancing and maintaining hygiene.
Signs near the entrance emphasized safety measures with one on the front door clearly indicating everyone must order food.
“You have to eat now. Before you could just come there and hang out. You just can’t come there and hang out. You have to come and eat, we made it a restaurant,” Langan said.
What a time to be alive.
