How was the rest of opening weekend? It’s remained pretty steady. H left one of the mainstay institution restaurants in town to open this, so he’s sort of freaking out about slow days (on day 4, the Tuesday after a holiday), but honestly, it’s gone as smooth as a restaurant opening can go. I’m working on flyers to go in all the hotels and the local paper/tv are coming to do interviews this week, so word will spread. Now we work on staff and procedures and dialing it all in.

Don’t forget local social media too! We have a city to go page and it’s very active (it started during the pandemic) and I have found many new places from there and I’m constantly promoting my sister’s place through that too

I created a profile on our Nextdoor, google, yelp and bing. I did not however know that google has an auto booking option for reservations…which we are not taking for anything (and likely won’t unless it’s 15-20). Had to fix that on the fly today!!
