I don't know if this is a franchise but there are lots of places with the same name all over. Mandarin House Chinese Buffet used to have a smoking section. I took my Mon to eat there yesterday for Mothers Day.
( yes, I know Mothers Day was Sunday, but we go the day after, no crowds to fight, the prices are cheaper, better parking - just makes sense all the way - we do this with all major holidays)
Well they don't have the smoking section anymore and vaping is not expressly forbidden here by law. I thought I'd try out stealth vaping ( just as to not annoy other customers who would not understand) and found it works Great.
Here's what I did:
They use pretty big napkins. I folded one lengthwise and used it to hide my Riva 510 SE. With both elbows on the table holding the napkin in both or one hand whichever is more comfortable for you. You can casually put the top of the napkin up to your lips where it hides the tip of your e-cig. Take a puff and hold it for a sec. The napkin hides everything. Then slowly blow the vapor out into the straw of your drink as you hold the straw with your hand covering the top of the glass. This keeps any wild vapor In the glass - if you blow too hard you can get vapor come up out of the glass and bust you. If you blow slowly, the liquid droplets of vapor get absorbed into whatever your drinking. It doesn't change the taste of your drink or make it funky in any way.
This method worked awesomely. My wife and Mom, both of which know I vape, did not detect what I was doing until I told them. No one looked at me funny.
I look forward to trying this every place I go!
