trigger 1st *wood bonus with SPG MBNA (Canada)

Am I correct in understanding that such a purchase (SPG pts at a restaurant) would also qualify as the 'first SPG purchase' required for the first 5000 pt bonus from MBNA?
Has anyone received their bonus first starwood charge pts from MBNA for such a purchase (ie. not a stay at a hotel?)

Be interested to hear from anyone who has done / can confirm.
Thanks!
