@PatrickMBoston@IndpRestaurants Thanks Patrick for beating the RRF drum. This recent COVID spike is, predictably, slamming restaurants that are already vulnerable due to the seasonal slow-down. 2 to 3 months of plummeting sales will be hard to survive for many.
@IndpRestaurants I'm sure most Boston restaurants that are still open are experiencing the same thing: a massive drop-off in sales, especially indoor dining. For those of us who don't focus on take-out, these are scary times.
@BostonPotter Hey Jeremy, this is indeed David. I'll be in the Berkshires for a good part of the next few weeks, so if it's not a big deal to drop pieces off at Tres, that would be great. Many thanks!
@tiffanifaison I wish all of us feeling stretched thin trying keeping our restaurants alive had time/ energy to get together once in a while, just to share stories, frustrations, lessons learned, and maybe a laugh or two. Feels like we're all down our individual rabbit holes. Stay well!
@kcbaskin@BostonGlobe The fact that my 8 year old, Dylan, was excited to join in all the baking projects I threw at him, including: sourdough bread, beer bread, crumpets, cheddar cheese crackers, and all manner of cakes and cookies. Very therapeutic!
Huge THANKS to @devrafirst for underscoring the dire state of affairs our industry is in, and to all those who support their local restaurants! https://t.co/GbrYiqbgWN via @BostonGlobe

@kcbaskin@BostonGlobe Building rockets is a great diversion, and (if you're lucky), not as messy as baking. That said, my 7 yr old is growing up in the industry, so he got indoctrinated in housemade pasta early. Recommend keeping that Kitchen-Aid with attachments out!
@PadmaLakshmi I just spoke with a Boston Globe reporter covering the federal response. Really important for us all to keep up pressure on city, state and federal officials for rapid and meaningful aid.
@AlexRSaenz True hospitality becomes increasingly important and precious as overall civility and kindness decline, and our isolating technology undermines face to face community.
