    There was a cafe called "Kilted Coffee" in Minneapolis that planned to have the entire staff in kilts, I don't know what the story was, but the business never opened, or was only open for a short time before closing its doors, I suspect it was under-capitalized. Too bad, it seemed like a nice place in a good location.

    I actually met one of the owners (a Utilikilt-wearer) and saw the place right before it was set to open.

    Tartans Coffee?

    get it?
    tarts and coffee???
    get it?
    could always get in a real fight and call it MacDonalds , i mean, with the right tartan flag and all..
    i had a friend call his place McDunns, or the like, mickey D's came down on that one, and his name matched, scots and all,,
    but then these are the same people that tried to get a 200 year old restaurant in england to give up it's name, said it would confuse a descerning clientelle..
    i stopped eating at macdonny's since..
    good luck with the kilt wearing..
    i work for myself, and wear a kilt anytime i please...

    The plan was to go kilted, but I had not herd back from three other stores. I was wearing....Pants...on my motorcycle when I walked in, handed in my application, and walked out. Three minutes later, I received a call on my cell phone that said, "can you come back in and interview"? I was hired on the spot. If she had called and said, come back tomorrow, I would have.
