Our opening day at Tropic's Cafe was awesome! We're both freakin' exhausted but feel great about how things went. We started the day early, around 8am and with the exception of a short break to run home and get the doggies out and fed we ended our "work day" at about 11pm last night.
We were busy for both lunch and dinner and had a good Happy Hour crowd poolside. Paul did a fantastic job in the kitchen getting all the meals out, looking and tasting great. And I might say that my waiting and bartender skills dazzled the crowds. :)
Today is SABA DAY, the official national holiday on the island. Everything is closed, banks, schools and businesses but Tropic's is open for business so I hope that we'll be busy again today.
Off to work!

Glad to know things are going well for you with thre restaurant and the weather. The economy is all back to normal here and it is warm too. RE is appreciating at like 200% per year. Your old house is worth 2.6mil now.
i'll take the grilled tuna sammich with extra wasabi plz.
dazzling, but of course. Ken Upton would be proud. Morgan auditioned for Hansel & Gretel last night. Won the part of a "camper." Yes, yes, I know there were no campers in Hansel & Gretel. It's the 2008 version. Much love to you! FedEx some grouper up to Lake Oswego ok?
Don't think it gets any easier. Restaurants are 18 hour days, I know I have been there with my mom at her place. But, I love the restaurant life, especially before the crowd comes and it is quiet and empty, then boom, the show begins. Tony
