After a really rough year, and many more restaurant closings than in a normal year, one reality TV show "expert" is predicting a bright future, in the coming months (at least), for restaurants and bars.
I heard Jon Taffer from the Paramount Channel's Bar Rescue Show on a podcast, and he's an optimist. But given how many restaurants he has bailed out of big trouble, you can't be surprised.
He talked about being in Las Vegas and people flocking from California, as the demand is growing. You would think something similar was happening here when Indiana was more "open" late last year than Michigan, and many were going over the border to be able to go to restaurants. Now with the vaccination levels in Michigan inching above 50%, and with promises of expanded occupancy at higher vaccination levels, the same could happen here.
