Petition in Support of Issuance of a Common Victualler’s License to Exotic Restaurant Concepts, Inc., d/b/a Exotic Grille & Sushi, 80 Mason Street, Boston MA. on November 28, 2007.

To the Boston Licensing Board and to all parties concerned:

The undersigned support the granting of a Common Victualler’s License to Exotic Restaurant Concepts, Inc., dba Exotic Grille & Sushi, 80 Mason Street, Boston MA.

We, the undersigned Boston residents, taxpayers, voters, business owners and employees, students, patrons of the restaurants, theaters, and the local businesses are an integral part of Boston. We are interested in seeing an Exotic Sushi restaurant at 80 Mason Street. We believe this type of restaurant is underserved in midtown, Boston.

We believe competition is healthy in any neighborhood. Competition forces the service providers to offer better products and services at prices where the customers win. Lack of restaurant competition means with a lack of competing restaurant businesses and /or a monopoly, the customers are limited in their choices of where to dine and subject to sub par services and products at a price that is not in the best interest of the consumer.

We believe the granting of a Common Victualler’s License to Exotic Restaurant Concepts, Inc. will be in the public interest, will meet a demand for these services, and will be a convenience to the public.

Thank you for your attention.
