1.   A new restaurant has just opened across the road.

2.   A new restaurant has opened at the mall.

3.   The new restaurant opened last month.

4.   The restaurant opened earlier this month.

5.   Already, a few restaurants have opened.

6.   And as more restaurants open, the demand for restaurant workers just keeps growing.

7.   And here I sit, along with others of the Bay Area persuasion, waiting for the latest Cablinasian restaurant to open.

8.   And it was certainly helpful that hundreds of free meals were offered to, and accepted by, members of Congress, lobbyists and lawyers when the restaurant opened.

9.   And now that theme restaurants are opening in Kansas City, Indianapolis and other smaller markets, the novelty appears to be wearing off.

10.   As Americans eat out more, more restaurants open their doors to meet the demand.
