Hello

I'm afraid at this late stage it will be about what is actually open & if they have any vacancies.

Chinese restaurants are always open but, the better restaurants will probably have been booked up for many months.

Cheers

My experience at Murphs was not good. Rough crowd bad language sexist racist dialogue we were forced to listen to and the food is bang average. It's dark dingy and smelly. I'd look elsewhere.

I can't disagree with you on that summation NeillyDunn as I am not familiar with the establishment. I would have recommended The Sands Restaurant on Avenida Purisima but I saw they were booked up unfortunately.
