California restaurant pledges to serve only unvaccinated diners

An Italian restaurant in Huntington Beach, California that has resisted mask warrants since last year is now pledging to serve only those who have not received a coronavirus vaccine.

Pasta E Vino de Basilico displayed a sign on its front door reading: “NOTICE Proof of non-vaccination required.” It is not known how long the panel has been in place or what would constitute “proof” of not having received doses of the Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson and Johnson vaccines, although the restaurant has complained about the “HATERS” and “LITTLE DICTATORS” after owners said they were threatened by Los Angeles Times coverage of the development.

“‘LOS ANGELES TIMES’ PRINTS AN ARTICLE ABOUT US, AND HERE ARE THE HATERS, AND WITH IT, THE HARCETIC NON-STOP PHONE CALLS, THREATS AND HUNDREDS OF ONE-STAR REVIEWS. AND GUESS WHAT? BASILICO’S PASTA E VINO ‘WEAR EVERYTHING LIKE A BADGE OF HONOR! ” wrote the restaurant in a scathing Facebook post.

In May 2020, Basilico’s launched an anti-mask campaign and a month later released a statement that patrons who wish to dine inside the restaurant will have to “remove” their face coverings when sitting down. .

“So, to be clear, if you walk into the restaurant for dinner and you want to wear a mask, you have to take it off when you sit down. If you are standing inside and waiting for a table, or waiting inside to pick up food for yourself or as a third-party delivery driver, and you are wearing a mask, you will be asked to wait outside, ”the owners wrote at the time.

The state became aware of it in October 2020 and the California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control accused Basilico of being “disorderly premises.” The restaurant’s liquor license is still active despite an ongoing dispute for the owners.

The threat came days after the restaurant ordered a sign in the area that read: “Leave the mask, take the cannoli,” a tribute to the classic mafia movie The Godfather.
