Am I alone thinking that in the evenings when frequenting a restaurant it's customary for males to wear something from the waist up, even if it's just a T-shirt. Right now, I am sitting in a restaurant, and there's a table of 4 - males in just swimming shorts and 2 ladies in bikinis.

Just strikes me as total disrespect for other diners.

Anyone have any views?

:)Totally agree, theres a time and place for everything, and dining is not appropriate in swimwear, its as bad as going to the shops in pyjamas, if not worse.

They wont allow it in Bella Mamas and I think they are right.

i think at lunch-times the restaurants are easy going on what you wear but for evening i think there should be some sense of dress code

Totally agree, its enough to put you off your meatballs:D
Last thing we wish to see is a fat hairy belly hanging over a skimpy pair of speedos whilst trying to eat our meal.
And as for some of the women $:-\$ is the only suspension available the table[?]How do they manage to eat at arms length

I also agree; it is fine to be 'topless' on the beach but it is only common decorum to be fully dressed when in a restaurant. Shirts are for wearing, not fashion accessories.
