Should I care why your restaurant is closed today?
I walked past a restaurant on La Brea which gets quite a bit of foot traffic and spotted this sign in the window:

If a restaurant is closed for the day then the end result for me is the same: I can't eat there that day. The reason doesn't really have an effect on that status. So why go into detail about the reason for the day's closing? Do you suppose it has more to do with not wanting passers-by to think that they've closed for the day for no good reason, or because they wanted passers-by to know that their food is good enough for a billion dollar movie studio?
You tell me in the comments.

If they're THAT professional, why WRITE such a note on the back of a printed piece of paper???
Professional would be to print it out; any modern business has a computer and printer nowadays...

i suppose you could walk into the restaurant on a day they are open and ask them.
maybe they were in a hurry. maybe it was a last minute thing. would you have been upset if it said: "Closed for death in the family"? does it really matter?
