Ever since we've been in Hawaii (over 28 years now), we've without exception spent Christmas Eve having dinner at Stewart Anderson's Steak House.
Even last year, in the middle of the pandemic, we were seated about 10 feet from other tables, and everyone wore masks. None of us became infected that night as far as we know.
This year, they require that we be vaccinated or present evidence of a negative COVID test within the previous 48 hours of entering the restaurant.
My daughter asked me if I want her to make reservations for Christmas Eve again this year. I'm thinking not. I believe the tests and vaccines are not a guarantee against our catching the virus, and they tend to create an air of "false security," which actually increases the chances that someone won't wash their hands, properly social-distance or wear a mask.
These rules do nothing to stop the spread, and I really don't intend to get vaccinated or tested to spend an evening (and my money) for a meal that's going to probably run $200 for the four of us (including cocktails).
Best option to me is to cook Christmas Eve dinner and have left overs on Christmas Day. I can get much more for my $200 at the grocery store/Costco than I would at a restaurant.
