All they have to do is serve a drink to a patron and that qualifies as open for business. It can still be done by then. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

The exact question was " pick a Monday that the first establishment will open". I know because I was the one that asked it. When the first place serves their first drink or food and takes money for it that is the day (and the week) that it is "open".

It's my party and I'll cry if I want too, cry if I want to....


Just one drink is all it will take. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Just for the record and as we come up on the first dates, here is a list of the picks:

12/7/15 sxmdoc Vikki52
12/14/15 gotaluvit TravelHat chiaoo

3/21/16
3/28/16 BGH
4/4/16
4/11/16 SeaStar
4/18/16
4/25/16 biglar

The order in which the names are shown is in order that they came in. So, the first name would be the one that owns that week, so to speak. Several requested dates were not Mondays as I had requested so any dates that came after Monday were assigned the Monday for that week.

For those "SXM time" folks there are several dates still available in January and February. For those showing up late, the prize is a drink ($10) at the Perch.

Hey, a lot of work went into compiling that list--especially for those of us that can't read directions! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Laugh.gif" alt="" /> But I guess you now need to define what "opening" means, and whether it has to be all the restaurants, or just the first one! ...and whether they have to actually serve food, or just be open for chairs and drinks! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Laugh.gif" alt="" />

Since you guys start to get into semantics and definitions, to me "open" is like "pregnant", you are or you're not.
They're no such thing as half-open nor half-pregnant so if a restaurant is open, it must serve food. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

And for the record my pick is end of December, and if I have have to pick a date, it'll be Dec 28.

It was already set. OP stated "first place that serves their first drink or food"
Good enough for me.

And charges $$ for it...
