What if those places were to vanish? What if you were to wake tomorrow morning and learn that that remnant of your life and that portion of your community’s lingua franca had been erased? Such a prospect has been a real threat all year, with the relentless tragedy of COVID-19 leaving many American restaurants, even established classics, on the brink of bankruptcy. The threat will only intensify as winter progresses and restaurateurs have to abandon the outdoor dining that has kept them treading water for months. We love restaurants here at
Esquire, and we hope that during this holiday season you’ll consider making donations to Southern Smoke and the Lee Initiative and other organizations that are helping restaurant workers endure the crisis. We also hope you’ll raise a toast to these spots around the country old and new, scruffy and spiffy that we consider restaurants that America can’t afford to lose. Because if we lose them, we lose who we are.
