MANASSAS, Va. — The manager of the restaurant at a Virginia country club has apologized after many people called the restaurant’s planned menu offensive.
An image of the menu, which was reportedly posted in a Facebook group for servicemembers and veterans, was shared on Twitter. The menu’s offerings included “Pentagon Pie,” “Flight 93 Redirect” and a drink called a “Remember-tini.”
The menu is for The Clubhouse at Aquia Harbour, a restaurant at a country club in Manassas, WJLA reported. The image was quickly removed from the Facebook page.
The same person who shared the initial image of the menu shared an apology from George White, the restaurant’s manager, WJLA reported. That post said: “I apologize for those I offended with the 9/11 seafood Sunday post. My intention was to bring attention to that horrific day 21 years ago. To honor those who lost so much as well [as] those who gave everything that day. We will have a new theme tomorrow.”
WJLA reached out to White, who said he had no comment.
