Default OT - Anyone here own a restaurant?

But *your* customer base is mostly from elsewhere and doesn't fit that profile.
You should figure out what they are likely to want and try to provide that. You
are also in a unique position to match your hours of operation to the arrival
times of most of your guests, or perhaps provide room service at odd hours. I
still have unfond memories of checking into a hotel in Savanah five minutes
after the restaurant closed.
