forced to make heart-wrenching decisions
even temporary closures would be devastating
offering to-go food starting today
we all have mixed feelings
never seen anything like this
The city of LA is tricky
aspiring actors who moved to Southern California
we’ll get together and pull through it
a lot of people almost out of business
Some of them were devastated
a hard time making rent
The chain [restaurants] don’t need to adjust
[but] I don’t what everywhere I go to be just like everywhere I have been
Navigating the new world of takeout
free kids meals with takeout orders
“tweezer food” doesn’t travel well
how it would all pencil out financially
Add that up, what do you have left?
It’s scaring many people
always in the cash flow crunch
Money’s always tight
chefs looking at those numbers
Eventually, tomorrow or the day after
shuttering all of enterprises
everybody’s going to shut down
staying home
what the … just happened?
There’s going to be a lot of ‘for lease’ signs.
