Most places here ask smoking or Non-Smoking when you walk in the door. The Big Biscuit is completely non-smoking witch is nice change from the normal Breakfast dinner types. I hate going to those places (Jim's Family Restaurant, Betty's, Norma's) the smoke is so thick and all the people are smoking those cheep generic cigarettes (GPC). Those have to be the worst smelling cigarettes ever. I used to smoke (Camel Wide Lights) and I can go to a bar and sit around people with Marlboro or Camels, but light up a GPC and I can't stand it, Burns my nose.
My since of smell is so much better now. I quit eating at place's because I could smell the grease or the trash. I can also smell the neighbors smoking there GPC's on the front porch. Nasty! Now I do smoke a Cigar (Boulevards) every now and again but only outside and maybe in a Cigar bar, I sure won't light one in a restaurant. I spent a long time looking for the right cigar that tasted good and did not offend. The Boulevards are a nice mild cigar with a light pleasant aroma.

Better restaurants tend to be non-smoking anyway, but there are two within walking distance of my house that used to allow smoking. I don't know if they will be necessarily losing profit though; I guess you are assuming that the smokers just won't go any more. But where *would* they go? I think that if they want to eat out they will still go to restaurants, but smoke after they leave, or before they come. And I on the other hand will be more likely to frequent those restaurants, along, presumably, with the other non-smokers in the neighborhood.
