likely already losing money before the shut down, so why dig a deeper hole?
apparently had some issues with the landlord as well

Wonder if there was some loss of business insurance due to emergency / natural disaster that would go away if they reopened? Does something like that exist?
Business interruption insurance doesn’t cover a pandemic

That’s an ongoing legal battle. IMO the insurers should be forced to pay if it incentivizes reopening.

I’m angry at every single person from the president on down to the basic US citizen who thought that an economic shutdown would be the best way to manage this situation.
And I'm happy you are. Nationally, this is a complete cluster. Hell, if a hair salon bitch in Dallas can get 500K in GFM money The Rum House can cash in I would think.
Emotions are out of control. And the big business conglomerates are taking full advantage of Trillions.

Bailout. It’ll be much more efficient to pump them full of cash than it would be to pay every small business directly.

Especially if a place can prove that they completely shut down the entire time and took a major economic hit. Some places like Popeyes and fast food places didn’t miss a beat so they should not be able to collect business interruption insurance

That is literally House and Senate Law you're talking about. There is no chance anyone in Congress will die on that sword facing the American Insurance lobby. That's who we are as a country. Bought and paid for bullshite.

frick you progressives for letting this madness happen.

Just passed Magazine location and a lot of the restaurants are prepping to open and Rum House is still closed up and nothing going on.

The corridor between Kenilworth and Starring is a dead zone for restaurants. Nothing seems to last there.
Posted on 5/14/20 at 2:18 pm to Byrdybyrd05
Finally BR doing something right. That place fricking sucks.

Everyone under 30 who visits New Orleans hangs out Uptown most of the time. Just because it is Uptown doesn't mean custies aren't flocking to it. Next time you're on Mag, take a peek at the crowd there and let me know what you think.
That stretch of Magazine with Balcony Bar, Bulldog, Rum House, etc is not were tourists go. I'm not sure why any of them would go to that area to hang out if visiting new orleans

how about letting the language of the policy determine the obligation to pay?

Seems odd to announce the day before they can open back up in some capacity.
They have been closed for a over a month, you have to get staff and food on order to run a restaurant. If they are already in a huge hole, it makes no sense to order a bunch of product just to see how the weekend goes. Not to mention who knows what the rent was for that location if they even wanted to stretch it out a few more weeks

They’ve been boarded up since this all began and haven’t been doing pick up or curbside.
Restaurants in Murfreesboro TN were able to sell alcohol to go as long as any food was also ordered which really helped bar&grill type establishments. Is Baton Rouge the same?

Red Dog has people working inside and cleaning equipment. Rum House will probably wait until they can open to fill capacity like a lot of other restaurants
