Economic question on elasticity, need some help?

Each Monday a restaurant runs a lunch special on vegetarian laksa. On other days of the week it sells about 250 serves at a price of $7 each during the lunchtime rush. On Mondays, the restaurant lowers its price to $5 and demand proves to be price inelastic (i.e. Ped is less than 1.0). The chef argues that even 250 serves stretches the kitchen beyond its production capacity. She argues that a price rise would ease the pressure on the kitchen and would leave the restaurant better off. Use your understanding of elasticity and revenue to critically examine the chef’s position.
