Blogmas Day 10: Would you pay a lot extra to help keep a local restaurant open?

Now I am just thinking out loud which is a trait I seem to openly enjoy.
I know that a lot of locally owned restaurants have been suffering due to the pandemic and shut down.
Other businesses have too.
Some people are struggling in ways they never thought they would.
As a person who loves business, I spend a lot of time thinking about courses of action for small business right now.
My mind has always leaned toward diversification and multiple income streams but many of my past ideas would have still not warded off shutdown.
One idea I had toyed around with in my head(pre-pandemic) was a restaurant crawl.
A spin on a bar crawl but with great food and different locations.
My socially distanced spin on that is a specialized night at your favorite local spot.
Picture it:
You and your love with a few other couples.
Enjoying a special night of entertainment.
Maybe a singer or comedian. Maybe a small live band.
Your 8 to 10 course meal ordered in advance.

A local restaurant could offer this service as a one off or a certain number of times a month.
Depending on demand.
What would you be willing to pay for this?
On a special night like your birthday, anniversary or engagement.
The more special the restaurant made the night the more people would want to experience it.
Plus the food would have to be top notch.
Again, just thinking out loud.
