Maine experienced a 40% decline in small business openings when compared to last year, the second largest drop nationwide, according to Jill Gonzalez, an analyst for WalletHub.
A report from WalletHub comparing the economic exposure to coronavirus among the 50 states ranks Maine 21st overall but 13th in the category “highly affected industries and workforces,” one of the two metrics used to rank the states. Double weight is given to the accommodations, food service, arts, entertainments and recreation industries.
“An important part of the state’s gross domestic product is generated by highly affected industries such as accommodation, food services, retail trade and educational services,” Gonzalez said. “Plus more than 57% of employment is from small businesses which have been gravely affected here.”
You can sense the excitement in the Dallas restaurant industry: Patio weather is here, thousands of people are getting vaccinated every day and dining rooms are beginning to welcome back customers who’ve previously stuck to takeout.
The excitement isn’t limited to current restaurants. In 2021, we’re poised to see a boom of new openings, and many of them are going to be very expensive.
Tasting menus are in again. At Monarch, in downtown’s National Building, diners can choose to sign up for a $290 tasting of “the best our menu has to offer.” On Greenville Avenue, two new tasting spots will debut this summer: Shoyo from longtime Nobu sushi chef Jimmy Park and Carte Blanche by married chefs Amy and Casey La Rue. Casey has worked for Michelin-starred legends Daniel Boulud, Joel Robuchon and Thomas Keller.
