What’s in a restaurant's name? Does it tell you everything you need to know about the food, the establishment, and the mindset of ownership? Does it tell you about the family behind the business or the history of what is being prepared? Or is it simply a random name slapped onto a building? Every restaurant owner has a slightly different approach to the naming practice. Traditional names tend to come from family-owned establishments, while the names used to sell an experience often come from investment firms. And if plans are approved in Scottsdale, an out-of-state investment firm will have a new steakhouse opening in Old Town.

When Bottled Blonde announced its plans to open a two-floor restaurant and nightclub in downtown Gilbert, it ruffled some feathers. When it just so happened this would also result in destroying a 100-year-old building at the same time, it pushed several local residents over the edge. This resulted in the creation of a Change.org petition to prevent the opening of Bottled Blonde in its planned (and purchased) download Gilbert location. In the two weeks since creating the petition, thousands of locals have signed their names up in support of blocking the construction and opening of the planned business. It has also forced the response of a local town council member.
