    Starbucks Goes From Sip and Stay to Grab and Go – The New York Times - March 17, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    He learned on Monday that the seating areas would be closed. I was really bummed, he said. Now he plans to work from home, where it will be easier to get distracted by the refrigerator, the television or the dog.

    But Mr. Frank, 63, said he understood the reason for the change. All demographics visit Starbucks, and its just an incubation ground for anything that might be going around, he said. So I think it was a prudent decision on their part.

    The coffee chain, which has more than 10,000 company-owned outlets in the United States and Canada, is not alone.

    Tim Hortons, the popular Canadian fast-food chain, announced that it would close its dining areas beginning Tuesday to focus on takeout, drive-through and delivery service. Dunkin said on Monday that it was reducing hours, removing tables and limiting its service to drive-through and carryout at its restaurants in the United States.

    On Monday, the governors of Connecticut, New Jersey and New York announced broad restrictions on public life in those states: Casinos, gyms and movie theaters will be closed starting Monday evening, they said, and bars and restaurants will be limited to takeout and delivery.

    Some Starbucks locations in high-traffic areas, like malls and campuses, will be temporarily closed entirely, the company said.

    As we all know, the situation with Covid-19 is extremely dynamic and we will continue to review the facts and science and make the proactive decisions necessary to protect our partners, customers and communities, said Rossann Williams, the executive who oversees the companys 200,000 workers in the United States.

    Banshee Serving ‘Comfort Items’ Menu in Drive-Thru as COVID-19 Response – What Now Atlanta - March 17, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    In response to COVID-19, Banshee Atlanta has created a menu of comfort items including a Virgin Hot Toddy, Bone Broth, and Chicken Noodle Soup to be served via its makeshift drive-thru starting Wednesday, March 18.

    Opt out at anytime

    News of Banshees special menu arrives on the heels of guidance out of The White House Monday to suspend in-dining patronage of restaurants and bars for the next 15 days.

    As of this writing, the guidelines are voluntary and are not ordered.

    The East Atlanta Village restaurant and bar that replaced My Sisters Room will block off two spots on the Gresham Ave. side of building, so guests may pull in to get their ordered food delivered to their window by a server.

    Since Banshee does not have traditional to-go food on their menu, this is a specially crafted menu for the current situation, a spokesperson for Banshee shared with What Now Atlanta over email Monday

    Banshees drive-thru workaround comes on the heels of unveiling its second bar and new patio dining room digs.

    When full operations resume, the patio with a 15-seat bar and 18 dining seats will be used as a private events space from Tuesday through Thursday.

    On weekends, it will be used as an extension of the restaurant since the full food and beverage menu will be available out there.

    Blue Heron Studio did the design and stencil, and architects DeCarlo Hawker, B10 Union commandeered the bar top, tabletops, and banquettes.

    Luke Mounts was the general contractor for the build-out, including the garage doors.

    Though no state-level or federal mandate has been rendered to close restaurant operations, a slew of Atlantas restaurants like The Nook andShake Shackare responding to the COVID-19 threat in creative ways, including shifting to mobile models, altering operating hours and, like Banshee, fashioning drive-thrus with healing remedies at the ready.

    Scope the new Comfort Menu beneath the patio re-do.

    The Wing Is a Womens Utopia. Unless You Work There. – The New York Times - March 17, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Later that year, another employee who had attended the Ocasio-Cortez fund-raiser at Gelmans home tweeted a note of discomfort about the radical-chic gathering. When Gelman spied it late at night over a weekend, she summoned her to her office the next Monday morning. The employee deleted the tweet and apologized, and Gelman responded benevolently. Your intelligence and depth are beyond your years, Gelman wrote the employee in an email. Of the Wing, she said: I am honestly very down to hear your unvarnished opinions on it, and ideas you have to improve it and make it better. I really mean that. But a few months later, when the employee emailed Gelman to ask about raising wages, and then began to inquire among staff about their working conditions, a Wing disciplinary write-up signed by Kassan rebuked the employee for expressing negative views about an event at Audreys home, sending reactive emails directly to the C.E.O. and interrogating staff about their pay and benefits. The employee was warned that the company wanted to see a significant improvement in her impulsive and reactive behaviors or face corrective action up to and including termination.

    Once, Gelman noticed a few dirty dishes in the beauty room of a club while Venus Williams was visiting the space, according to an employee who was working the event. She said Gelman shut the doors to the beauty room and raised her voice, saying a C.E.O. shouldnt have to clean. The employee left rattled and crying. Two employees who were present in the club that day confirmed that the employee tearfully described the incident to them shortly after it happened. (The Wing spokeswoman denied that it occurred.) Last year, Gelman told the website the Cut that the most fun Ive had in the last few months involved rolling up her sleeves and doing dishwashing shifts at the Wing. She washed three dishes and Instagrammed it, a former employee says.

    On a recent Thursday morning, I followed a trail of curvy white Ws painted along a Williamsburg sidewalk up to the entrance of the Wings newest club. In the elevator, I witnessed a real-life Winglet meet-cute: One woman read auras for GOOP; the other made $45 soaps for GOOP; they bonded over a healer they both knew. An eager young Wing employee met me at the front desk, and then I headed into the pink belly of the club, where Audrey Gelman was waiting for me.

    Gelman wore a golden Wing necklace and an inviting smile. Flanked by the Wings senior vice president for operations and an outside public-relations professional, she listened to the accounts of her employees and nodded thoughtfully. Despite their intention to build a womens utopia, she acknowledged, the ills of society at large had seeped in. Its hard to hear that people have had this experience, she said. These are familiar themes for us. Every employee concern, she assured me, had already been incorporated into a sweeping business recalibration. Even as it expanded, the Wing was overhauling its organizational structure, raising wages, extending benefits and instituting a code of conduct for members which, if violated, could result in the clipping of wings termination of membership.

    Gelman reiterated an article published on Feb. 26 in Fast Company, in which she wrote that she had tried to play the role of the perfect girlboss, promoting the fantasy that a female founder could have it all. But behind the scenes, she wrote, her fear of failure had led her to obscure the real challenges unfolding at the Wing. Wing workers, who had for years raised those very issues internally, wondered why the Wing only seemed to acknowledge them as members spoke up and journalists circled. But when Gelman posted her mea culpa on Instagram, glowing reviews flooded into the comments: So important. I didnt know I could love and admire you even more. Bravo. Whatever improvements might be in store for its employees in the future, the Wing had already successfully fixed the flaw in its public reputation.

    As the start-up world has reeled from the dizzying falls of toxic male founders like Ubers Travis Kalanick and WeWorks Adam Neumann, it has set its sights on a new kind of hero figure. Female entrepreneurs are paraded in the press as saviors of the market, even though they still receive relatively paltry sums from venture-capital firms. In their hands, the tensions of capitalism may be laundered through feminist messaging and come out looking bright and new. At the very least, corporate feminism can be defended as an incremental good. Yes, it may co-opt a political movement for profit, but it is moving the levers of capitalism for the benefit of women, tailoring products for female consumers and transferring cash into the coffers of women leaders.

    When these women inevitably fail to secure female empowerment through retail offerings and exclusive hospitality experiences, it is suggested that it is perhaps sexist to criticize them. Men get away with so much. And yet this outpouring of sympathy rarely extends beyond the executive suite. When a feminist company falls short of its utopian vision, it is the workers who must toil to maintain the illusion. And they are women, too.

    Support local: Restaurants, businesses offering delivery, to-go and curbside services in Heights, River Oaks and Montrose – Community Impact Newspaper - March 17, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Empty restaurant dining rooms will be the new norm as new restrictions take effect March 17. Local restaurants and shops are adapting by emphasizing pick-up orders and other services. (Courtesy Steak48)

    Note: This article will be updated as new information is received.

    With the order to close bars and restrict restaurants to pickup and delivery, local businesses are scrambling to change their services.

    We just have to innovate, and I know theyre all innovative people, said Corynne Rich, a small business consultant who works with 19th Street businesses in the Heights. We need to let people know how they can support their local businesses during this time.

    These are some of the businesses that got ahead of the March 16 decision to suspend bar and restaurant operations throughout Harris County.

    San Francisco shelters in place: How the city looked on the first day of coronavirus shutdown

    For more coverage, visit our completecoronavirussection here.

    At the stroke of midnight, shelter-in-place orders prompted by the coronavirus pandemic descended on San Francisco. And while the city is remarkably empty on the first day of its implementation, it was by no means completely deserted.

    Nearly seven million residents around the Bay Area are required to stay at home through April 7 except for "essential" business and errands, like going to the bank or the grocery store.

    Miguel Aguirre, 38, his wife and two children were the only ones Tuesday along a street near San Francisco's City Hall, an area normally bustling with office workers and commuters. He and his wife are janitors at the Boys & Girls Club. They had heard of the shelter-in-place order but decided to show up anyway because they need the money, only to be told to go home by his supervisor.

    "It's really a scary situation for us because if we don't work, we don't eat," said Aguirre, of Oakland, who brought his two daughters with him because schools were shuttered. He already lost his second job at the Hotel St. Francis when tourism conferences began canceling a month ago.

    "There have been days when I want to cry but I have to keep going, this is a very difficult situation," Aguirre said.

    Here's what we saw around the city on March 17, the first day of shelter-in-place in San Francisco:

    At 7 a.m., a walk around NOPA didnt look too much different than a typical weekday. The panhandle was full of people going for a morning run and a few people were using the newly installed outdoor exercise equipment. The amount of bike commuters was considerably fewer, though. One local coffee shop is no longer letting people inside they posted their menus up on the glass and people can order from a makeshift walk-up window (just a regular open window). The corner store is open and the Salvadorian restaurant was also doing takeout.

    The nail salon, three salons, a yoga studio and the bike shop were all closed.

    Castro Street on Tuesday afternoon was not deserted, but a shadow of its normal, vibrant self. The marquee above the Castro Theater's shuttered doors read "Stay Healthy and Safe, We'll Be Back Soon." Friends and couples walked dogs in pairs, although often several feet apart from strangers, across the sidewalks, attempting to social distance while still enjoying the city. Several disgruntled customers seemed saddened to see that the cannabis dispensary on Market Street The Apothacarium wasn't open for business, reading the sign in the window stating, "It is with a heavy heart that we report that the city of San Francisco has deemed cannabis dispensaries non-essential at this time."

    While the surrounding streets of Miraloma Park and Glen Park were close t0 empty, the crest of Mount Davidson, the highest point in San Francisco, was full of hikers, dog walkers and even a daycare class reading stories under the Mount Davidson Cross. San Francisco's shelter-in-place mandate allows for hiking, and San Franciscans seemed happy to be able to take advantage of this, on a peaceful, if a little eerie,day in the city.

    At 3 p.m. in the afternoon in the Mission, birds blatantly ignore the shelter-in-place order. Their songs sound much louder on the quiet blocks. Kids still dribble basketballs on the sidewalks with their dads, but people passing by step into the bike lanes to keep a safe distance. Oranges and onions still line the streets of 24th Street in the Mission, fresh produce stacked high in front of mom and pop grocers. The lines inside look orderly and reasonable. Torta and burrito smells sneak onto the sidewalk, but the seats are empty at Taqueria El Farolito, a "takeout only" sign taped to the window. A man holding leashes in each arm walks in my direction with his twin chihuahuas strafing the sidewalk. My dog looks at me confused as we jaywalk to the other side of the street, where we pass a defiant pink posterboard on a wall that says, "Stop here coronoavirus does not enter."

    Runners, bikers, a couple basketball players and a handful of skateboarders took to the park at the Panhandle on the first day of shelter-in-place Tuesday afternoon. Most were careful, sure to remain a healthy distance away from everyone else, but the scene didnt appear all that much different than a normal weekday.

    Nearby Baker Street was also still in business. A bodega, doughnut shop and a cafe were open, though the latters outdoor patio typically packed with people, even on weekdays was empty. The Kaiser on Geary, meanwhile, is very busy. Yesterday, a party rental company truck dropped off tents for the driveway by the emergency room; outside today are doctors in neon green jackets and face masks.

    Everyone is just kind of in shock: Restaurateurs look into the abyss as COVID-19 shutdowns take hold – Financial Post - March 17, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Greg Annesley was sitting at a table in his seafood restaurant in Belleville, Ont., watching on TV as Ontario Premier Doug Ford ordered all restaurants and bars in the province to close. The staff, already preparing for lunch service on Tuesday, looked over at their boss. What did he want to do? Should they stop? Was it over?

    Annesley, who has owned the Boathouse Restaurant for 20 years, told them to keep going, keep making soups, keep cutting fish. But as the morning continued, the news sank in. The Boathouse, like thousands of other restaurants and bars in Ontario, had to shut down, on St. Patricks Day no less. He told the staff to stop.

    The Ontario announcement was one of a series of similar orders and suggestions made across the country as provincial governments and municipal public health authorities from Vancouver to Nova Scotia moved to slow the spread of COVID-19. The news set off harried discussions in restaurants from coast to coast as owners tried to figure out how long they could afford to pay their bills without revenue.

    Annesley felt sick. He had 35 staff, all with families. Some of them had been with him for 15 years or more, with many living paycheque to paycheque. He also had thousands of dollars worth of perishable food in inventory. On top of that, rent for the 210-seat dining room, where Annesley said busy summers usually make up for slow winters, is due in two weeks.

    If this turns in to two or three months or more, we may not make it through that, he said.

    The local radio station called to tell him not to worry, theyd hold his ads until he was back up and running, no charge. But the laundry service wasnt as forgiving. They came by in morning to pick up the dirty aprons and rags. He told them he wouldnt have anything to be laundered going forward. He said they told him that theyd still have to charge him a monthly fee.

    Annesleys staff were worried about whether they could get employment insurance. He called his wife and co-owner, Nancy, to talk about what they could do for them. But the couple was already struggling, since Lake Ontario flooded twice in three years causing major damage and forcing the restaurant to close in patio season. They were already in the hole, he said. All they could manage was to issue the final paycheques on Friday, then lay off the staff so they could seek EI.

    I wish I could do more, Annesley said, his voice shaking.

    Throughout the day Tuesday, restaurateurs with similar concerns called Restaurants Canada, a major industry organization with roughly 30,000 members.

    I think everyone is just kind of in shock right now. Theyre not sure what to think, said James Rilett, Restaurants Canadas president for the central region. You can say you were getting ready for it for the last few days but when it hits its pretty devastating.

    Some restaurant and bar owners wanted to know, Should I lay off my staff or should I terminate them? Others asked, What do I do when my rent comes due next month and I have no money to pay?

    People are starting to look at 'How much of my personal savings do I use to keep open if I don't know how long this is going to last?'

    James Rilett, president, central region, Restaurants Canada

    People are starting to look at, How much of my personal savings do I use to keep open if I dont know how long this is going to last? Rilett said.

    In the short term, Restaurants Canada advised members to lay off staff and provide them with records of employment as soon as possible so they can apply for EI. He also said the restaurant industry will need leniency from landlords and local utilities when bills come due.

    In Ontario, restaurants were allowed to provide takeout and delivery, which would provide some reprieve but not nearly enough for the average Canadian full-service restaurant that gets 81 per cent of sales from dine-in customers, Rilett said.

    To make up 81 per cent of your business, it would have to be a huge spike in takeout and delivery, he said. Most wont see it.

    At Mildreds Temple Kitchen in Toronto, owner Donna Dooher made the call on Sunday to close the doors. She had been expecting slow brunch services over the weekend, after public health officials stressed the need for social distancing. Instead, the place was full.

    I was taken aback, she said. Thats when it occurred to me that this is not going to work.

    Dooher, with more than 35 years experience in the industry, made the call to close with her management team, who helped her inform the staff, the suppliers, the landlord, the security firm, the bank. On Monday, they opened a market with the thousands of dollars worth of perishable inventory and told the recently laid-off staff to take what they wanted bread, cream, eggs, potatoes, onions, desserts made for services that never happened.

    In meetings last week, Dooher could sense the younger staff were afraid. So she told them about several recessions shed worked through, including 2008 when she opened Mildreds Temple with her husband. She told them about running a restaurant during the SARS outbreak, and especially after 9/11, about how surreal it felt, too enormous to fully grasp in the moment. And she told them how her mother-in-law used to reassure her in uncertain times, by talking about France falling in the Second World War and how they thought that the end had come.

    I wanted to reassure them, Dooher said on Tuesday. We will get through it.

    Oregon orders restaurants, bars shut to all but takeout and delivery service to prevent spread of coronavirus – OregonLive - March 17, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Oregon Gov. Kate Brown ordered Oregon restaurants and bars to stop all on-site dining and limit sales to takeout and delivery at a press conference Monday afternoon.

    The closures come amid a larger ban of gatherings of more than 25 people for at least a month, with Brown urging Oregonians to avoid being around more than 10 people at a time. Exemptions to the closure list include grocery stores, pharmacies, retail stores and workplaces, and Brown suggested that businesses that cannot serve customers in a way that minimizes interpersonal contact should shut down completely during the pandemic.

    "Can your business do the equivalent of restaurant takeout? Brown asked. "If you cannot do that, I strongly urge you to close your doors to customers temporarily.

    The decision came five hours after Brown announced she was not ready to impose a curfew or broader shutdown on bars and restaurants, despite new federal recommendations against gatherings of 50 or more. Meanwhile, dozens of restaurants announced voluntary closures, more than 100 chefs, bartenders, bakers, winemakers and more signed an open letter asking the governor to order a blanket closure and President Trump advised all Americans to Trump eschew restaurants, bars and gatherings of 10 or more people.

    In her earlier press conference Monday, Brown suggested her decision not to impose any limits on restaurants and bars had come after a Sunday night telephone call with nearly 200 elected officials from around the state. During that call, she said she heard that in our rural communities, restaurants are a key provider of meals to a lot of the elderly and vulnerable folks."

    States including Ohio, Illinois, Washington and Maryland also ordered full-scale restaurant and bar closures Sunday and Monday, while California closed bars and limited capacity at restaurants across the state.

    On Monday afternoon, Brown said she was issuing the order to close in order to flatten the curve -- to slow the spread of the virus so that the healthcare system can try to keep up with demand for care.

    Portland-area restaurants began announcing voluntary dining room closures last week, starting with the upscale vegan restaurant Farm Spirit, the modern Jewish deli Beetroot and the Seattle-based steakhouse chain El Gaucho. Some closed their dining rooms altogether. Others tested out takeout menus or delivery service options.

    On Sunday, a major domino fell when one of Portlands most prominent restaurant groups, ChefStable, announced all 20 of its restaurants and bars, including some of the citys best-known restaurants, would close, with some continuing to offer food to-go via takeout or delivery. By the time of Browns announcement, dozens of other restaurants and bars had joined the list of closures.

    Food carts continued to operate as normal Monday afternoon, including at cart pods where the central beer bar or dining area had closed.

    I mean, were takeout, right?" said Matt Vicedomini, the owner of Matts BBQ and Matts BBQ Tacos and co-owner at Eem, which moved to a takeout-only menu Monday. Were super clean, were wiping down the tablet after every customer, were doing our best to be smart and were going to try to do that as long as we possibly can. Weve got 23 employees and as of now, theyre all still working and making money.

    At North Portlands German beer bar Prost, tables will be flipped up to discourage people from dining on the large patio and beer garden that normally provides seating for Matts BBQ and a half dozen other carts, Vicedomini said.

    Among the letters signees were Bonnie and Israel Morales of Kachka, the celebrated Russian restaurant in Southeast Portland. Before Browns press conference Monday, the restaurant announced plans to close its dining room the public and offer to-go food for curbside pickup or delivery within a three-mile radius. The restaurants attached Russian deli, Kachka Lavka, will remain open as a grocery store.

    By Monday, dozens of other restaurants had announced plans to test out similar takeout and delivery models either in-house or through third-party apps.

    As much as we need people in our doors, we started to think it was a little irresponsible to think of ourselves only, Israel Morales said Monday. I think its in everyones best interested that we safeguard the public and safeguard our restaurants financially so that theres a future when we get to the other side of this."

    As for the delivery service? Morales says hes already found the right man for the job.

    Im the delivery driver for now, Morales says. Hey, thats me!

    Riley’s Nightclub will install garage door on their Main Street entrance this Sunday – Ashland Source - January 16, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    ASHLAND -- Riley's Nightclub will soon sport a whole new look with a new, revamped front entrance.

    Ohl and Son's Garage Doors in Mansfield will be installing a garage door on Main Street right next to Riley's front entryway this Sunday, January 19.

    On commendably weathered evenings, the nightclub will now have the option to open their new garage door and allow fresh air inside.

    "We would love to have an outdoor patio, but I don't really think that is possible at that location, so this is the next best thing," said Joy Cline, owner and CEO of Riley's Nightclub. "There is such a hustle and bustle to Main Street, and we just want to share that energy with the community."

    Riley's is located at 155 West Main Street in Ashland and is open everyday from 8 p.m. until 2:30 a.m.

    Cline believes that this new garage door will also highlight the nightclub's music scene.

    "We also want to share our love of music with passerby's on the street," said Cline. "We plan on having local artists playing in the window pretty frequently and hopefully draw in people with the music and fresh air."

    The door also helps if any larger equipment needs transported inside the building.

    Cline also mentioned that she would like to add some daytime hours and sell food at the bar in the future.
