The issue of restaurants has always been an interesting one. Assuming that the people who staff the restaurant are either unbelievers or Jews, to what extent is it 'rest' to attend a restaurant? If you visit someone else's house, you are profiting from their work (setting the table, at the very least) etc.
Thanks for the mention. I enjoy the varied topics you write about.
