When a new restaurant, Martin's Cafe, opened in Riverville last year, many people predicted that business at the Wildflower Inn, Riverville's only other restaurant, would suffer from the competition.Surprisingly, however, in the year since Martin's Cafe opened, the average number of meals per night served at the Wildflower Inn has increased significantly.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain the increase?

A. Unlike the Wildflower Inn, Martin's Cafe serves considerably more meals on weekends than it does on weekdays.

B. Most of the customers of Martin's Cafe had never dined in Riverville before this restaurant opened, and on most days Martin's Cafe attracts more customers than it can seat.

C. The profit per meal is higher, on average, for meals served at Martin's Cafe than for those served at the Wildflower Inn.

D. The Wildflower Inn is not open on Sundays, and therefore Riverville residents who choose to dine out on that day must either eat at Martin's Cafe or go to neighboring towns to eat.

E. A significant proportion of the staff at Martin's Cafe are people who formerly worked at the Wildflower Inn and were hired away by the owner of Martin's Cafe.

我觉得比较好的解释:
If they customers never dined in riverville before that means they are new customers for Martin's as well as Wildflower which implies that Wildflower's now gets regular customers plus new customers (who are not able to get seats at Martin's and hence choose to dine at neighbouring Wildflower's). This explains increase in average number of meals per night served at Wildflower's.
