The blizzard of 2015 didn't dampen Bostonians' appetites to venture out yesterday in search of restaurants that were open to serve their snowbound neighbors.
Barracuda Tavern in Downtown Crossing had put up six workers at the Nine Zero Hotel and Omni Parker House on Monday night so it could open at its normal 11 a.m. yesterday.
"We have two hotels right across the street from us, so it's a no-brainer," said chef/owner Luka Stipanov, who counted city workers as well as hotel guests as customers yesterday. "We're staying open until 2 a.m. and serving food until 1:30 a.m. — the full menu."
For Jacqueline Church, founder of private cooking class company Kitchen Confidence, the storm was a chance for a lunch date with her husband, an "essential" state employee who was working in Boston yesterday instead of his usual Danvers. The Leather District couple met at Gourmet Dumpling House in Chinatown.
"There was only a handful of people walking around out there," Church said. "Usually there's a line because it's so popular, but today, we walked right in and got a table."
Church saw only one other restaurant open.
"I was surprised," she said. "Chinatown usually is always the last to close."
Manager PJ Crowley shoveled a path through a 3-foot snowdrift to the door of Battery Park to open the Financial District bar and lounge for drinks -- with discounts equal to the amount of snow, which was 20 inches by mid-afternoon.
"It's a little tough, especially being in the area where we are," Crowley said. "But we had a lot of fun on Twitter yesterday and were committed to it, so we just wanted to follow through. Even after the (marathon) bombings we were open ... so we felt a snowstorm — being from New England -- wasn't really a big deal."
