Zion curtains were partitions unique to Utah restaurants that separated bartenders preparing alcoholic drinks from the customers who ordered them. The partition, which was usually made of glass, was inspired by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the predominant religion in Utah, which discourages alcohol consumption among its faithful.[1]
In May 2009, Utah Governor Jon Huntsman signed legislation that requires existing restaurants to remove the partition, but newly-built restaurants would have to prepare alcoholic drinks outside of their patron’s immediate view.[2]
