These restaurants WILL be OPEN on Christmas Day
Hill Street Cafe, Ventura, from 7am to 3pm.


Wednesday, December 25 - CHRISTMAS DAY!
Christmas is so many moods and memories...
Christmas is the glitter of trees hung with shining ornaments.
Christmas is the perfume of pine, roasting turkey and flaming pudding.
Christmas is the festive color of poinsettias, holly berries and candy canes.
Christmas is the sound of carols, hymns and the busy cling
of Salvation Army Santa Claus bells mingled
with the teeth-gritting of harassed clerks, belated shoppers and weary postmen.
Christmas is a chore, a festivity, a feast, a month-long madness and the best day of the year.
Christmas is the glow in the eyes of a believing child.
Christmas is a birthday!
