Thanks for posting the list. I should have thought to post it.

I check out the list every few days or so. Tom does a lot to pass on
information about and promote the restaurant industry in New Orleans.
There are a number of restaurants open which haven't made it to the
list. My understanding is that he doesn't add a restaurant to the list
until he's spoken to the owner/manager to confirm that they are open.
I've eaten at a few restaurants which aren't on the list yet.
