I stood in disbelief in April, 2020, as Parkway Social Kitchen vacated its popular restaurant.
One of the principals of the business told me it was predicted 65% of restaurants would no longer be solvent due to the pandemic.
Two years later, lockdowns and restrictions have been lifted. The restaurant industry is recovering, however returning to pre-pandemic business life is tough.
Products have doubled and tripled in cost, hourly labor costs are up, there are supply-chain issues, and inflation is increasing.
Visit a restaurant. Be generous with your gratuity. Be nice.
