Henry woke up earlier than normal this day, though that wasn't unusual as he did so a few times a month. Thanks to that he was able to get things prepared for the day ahead more quickly. His restaurant was spotless, the table spots were ready for the customers, and things were all prepared for cooking and mixing what would be needed. Not long after he finished getting things set up his employees started showing up one and two at a time. Soon everyone was there and there was still a few minutes left until opening time. "Okay everyone, let's do our best to make today yet another great day for not only the customers but also each other." Though it was the same each time it got everyone excited and ready for the day as they gave a cheer before unlocking the doors. Not to anyone's surprise there was already a few people waiting to come in. This early no one really had a need to make a reservation since the place's specialty was dinner. Be that as it may there were still a few people that came in for lunch, not that it really mattered. Granted there was no alcohol served until it reached about five in the afternoon, and no specialty drinks until seven in the evening.

From the get go there were orders, some knew what they wanted without a menu, others took their time to see what there was. Either way orders were placed and filled in a timely and quick fashion. And after a short while it was already about one in the afternoon; two hours after they had opened. "I wonder what familiar faces are going to come in this beautiful day?" Henry asked himself.

"Hal," one of the waiter yelled into the back, "got a man here with a special delivery for ya!"

"Send 'em back, I'll take this personally." Henry yelled back before a man came in reporting news from both last night and earlier that day. Surprisingly more had happened than Henry would have thought, but considering were he was that was to be expected. As the informant started out the back door Henry yelled out to his workers, "If we get any special guests make sure they get the VIP area. I have a feeling today is going to be a great day!" With a confirming 'yes sir' yelled back the waiters and waitresses as they kept diligently working hard.
