MIDDLESBORO, Ky. and TAZEWELL â If you can keep up with Chris Turnage, youâll see the hustle thatâs kept his business alive through the pandemic.
âA little bit before this time last year, we were doing about 15 to 25 to go orders a day. Now, weâre doing more than 200 every day,â said Turnage, the manager of Shades, a restaurant and bar in Middlesboro, Kentucky.
Here at Shades, Turnage and his team embraced this new way of serving. Theyâve also embraced social distancing inside and on their patio. But with all the to-go orders, this restaurant made a profit in 2020.
