Doing things like opening a restaurant in Panama is no easy task, and so it was that it seemed like we weren't going to pull it off, and I only ever know half the story of what's going on.
But we had invited about 60 people to have a dinner featuring some of the highlights on the new menu, as well as five carefully chosen glasses of wine. (I got stuck on the Pinot Noir.) So we plowed ahead.
Despite our careful consideration when it came to inviting guests, and an explicit notice on the invitation that each was being invited because of how laid back and understanding he or she was of what it's like to open a restaurant in Panama, we still ended up with a few complainers. Unfortunate, to be sure, but the food was good, the wine was good, and people danced. This is going to be fun.
