Sub Rosa: Discreet Restaurant With A Nude, Indiscreet Dress Code
Previously, I came across a unique restaurant in Maine that offered people a free lunch in 
Sub Rosaexchange for a nude dip in the lake. While naked restaurants just aren't common outside of nudist colonies, there are a few out there that, like Maine's Black Frog Restaurant are okay with an "au naturel" dress code, and the latest one is in Oregon.
The Sub Rosa restaurant serves food and drink with a side of music, and clothing is optional. The trend was initially started by the staff, who found themselves stripping down during a blistering hot day at an outdoor barbeque. It wasn't long before the diners joined in, and since then, it's been a clothing optional place to dine, drink and dance.
The catch is that Sub Rosa is kind of a secret society; with more that takes place online than anywhere else, and typically, cocktails can be had at night by invitation only. So while you might get to dink and dine in the comfort of your own skin, don't hold your breath, because you (yes you who's reading this) probably won't be invited.

hopefully you will get an invitation..send them an email, or perhaps they'll see this!
Poosted #2 - I think it's a guy, but at a place that's clothing optional anyways, it probably doesn't matter.

To each his own right...
To each his own right... besides going nude is probably very eco-friendly (no need to make or wash clothes), but what I keep thinking about is, "What if the food is hot and it falls off the plate onto your bare skin? Ouch!" So that's my thought on it. Anyhow...Tweet Tweet!

i love being nude
To me, being nude is being the same person but in a sensually charged ambience that is very pleasurable. Indeed I prefer being with with my family and other sociable mixed gender naturists in clubs and resorts for all of our recreation or relaxation. My personal best was three weeks vacation at Euronat resort in France, with everything except sandals put away for the entire duration. The strangenes of shirt and shorts to depart there was almost as strange as becoming a naturist many years before. As regards sex-life; being nude together promotes an appreciation of the pleasure that gan be given one to another. Enjoy our clothing free lifestyle! http://www.naturistspace.org

I hear you Gloria,
I hear you Gloria, especially the ones that are cooking over a hot BBQ, it just seems like a hazard waiting to happen. It's definitely got to be more eco-friendly, and from what I've read writing about previous nude-friendly businesses, some believe it's more hygeinic than wearing clothes (the jury's still out on whether I believe that one)!

Terminology
"Colonies" is not, and has not been, the PC term for nudists for Many years. The current acceptable terminology is Club, Camp or Resort. These days the only ones in 'colonies' are ants and lepers. Just FYI!!
