Numbers looking pretty quiet as we wrap up the week. 

I know we are all probably following these numbers, but as we finally see the 7 day moving average of Covid cases starting to drop we are also starting to see the slightest uptick in our sales numbers.

Seeing the tiniest bumps in week-over-week and open restaurant year-over-year numbers, but the rest looking pretty steady across.

While year-over-year sales for DMV restaurants are down considerably compared to the rest of the country, the trend is now going in the right direction, recovering after a dip in mid-July.

I shared yesterday how excited I was to see week-over-week growth at my restaurant and I heard from a few of you that you have had a similar experiences celebrating milestones that certainly look different than they used to.

It still amazes me I can be happy about a week at my restaurant where sales are down 62% year-over-year because at least they are up 13% week-over-week!

Just a quick update before we sign off for the weekend!

Sorry for the late arrival of our daily note tonight.

No news continues to be good (well, at least neutral) news as far as our sales numbers go.

Still a slow news day (week? weeks?) with everything in our new holding pattern

More of the same from our numbers coming out of the weekend with everything holding surprisingly steady – it’s not often we show zero percent change week-over-week.

Numbers still holding steady. Here’s hoping for a little weekend sales love from our customers and weather that brings the people to the patios!
