OPINION: Want to help the world once lockdown ends and we can all travel again? Great: get drunk. Get as much food in your stomach as you can handle. Stumble from bar to bar to cafe to hole-in-the-wall restaurant and repeat. Because these are the venues that are suffering. These are the ones that could disappear. It can be hard to keep up sometimes in this world of constant bad news, hard to work out the permanent changes that Covid-19 will have wrought on the globe once we all properly emerge. So let me catch you up on something. The social venues you love when you travel? The small, family-run establishments, the bars, the cafes, the trattorias, the izakaya, the tapas bars, the aperitivo joints, the modest businesses that don t have huge financial clout? They re already disappearing. Some will never return. And the ones that are still there are in desperate need of your help.
