Question: Can you help me with English?
The only big plans they had were to go out for dinner on Sunday night to an award-winning restaurant on the water that had been converted from an old captain's house and served only twelve meals a night.
There are two important plans:
1. they had were to go out for dinner on Sunday night to an award-winning restaurant on the water that had been converted from an old captain's house.
2. they had served only twelve meals a night.
Am I right?
Thanks!

Answers:
No - only one big plan - "to go out for dinner on Sunday night to an award-winning restaurant on the water that had been converted from an old captain's house and served only twelve meals a night."
It's the restaurant that served only 12 meals a night. This fact is mentioned because it shows the restaurant is very small and exclusive.
