Restaurants get creative as dine-in/catering sales drop

The “Safer at Home” restrictions that forced Door County restaurants to close their buffets and dining areas also resulted in creative ways to stay in business. Many have limited their business to take-out orders only.   Wanda Jean's in Sturgeon Bay is no exception.  While her dining room reopened last week,  owner Wanda Jean Hilsabeck says she's had to do a lot of tweaking to make up for lost dine-in and catering sales.   Hilsabeck says that tweaking is yielding some surprising results.
