Support Your Local Restaurants and Bars

I saw this posted and realized how bad the industry will take a hit by this coronavirus.
“Let’s support our local businesses by buying local and eating local, during this time. Especially our restaurants, by picking up food to go if needed”.

I’m in! I do this already, but now, I have a good reason.

I already do, but I'm going to visit these places a little more now. I feel so bad for these small businesses.
If Jazzfest gets cancelled, and we know it will, there are going to be a lot of closings. The cancelled conventions has already hurt a lot.

Agree that is what I was thinking after reading a few things today. Grits Gris post brought more to light. Wife going to Costco and all meat was gone. So, I guess people will start hunkering down. Which means our food places will get hit.
I will support my locals as much as possible.

I just went to lunch at a Thai restaurant that I go to often. Normally it's packed at lunch time. Today there were 5 tables occupied out of probably 30-40.

This is from Cory Bahr's restaurant, Parish, in Monroe.

I'll probably need gas tomorrow

If I get to work remotely, I’ll be eating out a lot more at lunch.

This actually is bad timing. End of March and April are traditionally the worst part of the year for restaurants

I’ll be doing my part. Going to hit a few breweries and restaurants in the neighborhood while the idiots stock up on toilet paper and hand sanitizer.

I currently am. Having beers at my favorite establishment in Kingwood, Three Bs, as we speak. Should be here all weekend.

What does a place like Walkon's do at a time like this?
replay last football season?

Normally I eat breakfast at home however, yesterday I went to Russels Marina Grill. Lunch I picked up a sandwich at Francesca’s. Made tacos for dinner. You got to love Lent in NOLA! Shrimp or oysters on Friday! I just need to find the mom & pop shop to support.

Maybe it’s good timing then based on that logic?

Our Kroger was a madhouse last night. The check out lady said they had been so busy it was like they said it was going to snow the Saturday before Thanksgiving. The store was a mess and lines were ridiculous.
