Any restaurant within a gang's turf would be lucky to get on the good side of that ruling gang; especially since it could mean a decent steady income as well. With the nightclub so close, the Thai joint could really have a lot of credits pouring into it's coffers, and while the other customers may complain...well those complaints wouldn't linger long. "I'm sure folks would enjoy it, and the owner here would hopefully be smart enough to accept CoD patronage since ya are all right up the street from this restaurant." Extortion was illegal, but the cop didn't care. After all the more money that the gang took in, directly affected how much and how often they could pay for his services in the future. "Glad ya approve, luv. I was on the fence, but it's better than I thought it'd be for sure."
