The Corona Effect on the Restaurant Industry

 The Corona Effect on the Restaurant Industry

Restaurants across the country are scrambling to respond as the coronavirus spreads. 



“With limited cash flows, how do we keep the kitchen fires in the homes of our employees and marginal suppliers burning is a question that does not have an immediate answer. We have sought deferment and concessions from all tax authorities, statutory bodies and financial institutions so that our limited cash flows are deployed towards more humane cause. We have met with some success on this. We are seeking similar relief from our landlords. However, if the COVID-19 spread is not controlled soon and lockdown continues for a while, we may not be left with enough resources to combat the problem despite our genuine and honest intent. 

However, even if business picks up, the damage could be long-lasting. “The present situation is all about surviving this pandemic with the least amount of casualties. As restaurateurs, we are looking at how to give wages to our staff so as they can meet their daily expenses. Once businesses re-open, the second stage of revival will pose many challenges, unseen and unimagined. For instance, decreased manpower, lack of money, a fall in demand, government and supplier dues, and higher fixed costs of rentals. Many businesses will not be able to survive this second stage unless all stakeholders of business, including government and landlords, provide impetus to the entrepreneurs.

THE FUTURE
TWO SIDES TO A COIN

The current crisis arising out of COVID-19 is still unfolding and restaurants are trying to prepare for what’s coming, and do what they can to protect public health. “The future looks really good as I am sure when all this ends, people will really want to go out and will value those outings at restaurants more than they did before. Usually people cut down on holidays, or shopping for expensive items, but they never compromise on going out or watching movies which are the only two good forms of entertainment in India.

Chicken Rajpipla – A Unique Royal Indian Recipe

Image
  Chicken Rajpipla is a unique recipe that comes from Rajpipla, a small town on the banks of the Narmada river in Gujarat. Very close to the Statue of Unity. Rajpipla was a 13 Gun Salute princely state from the 14th century to when it was integrated with the Indian republic in 1948. In the modern era, Rajpipla came into focus with the ascension of Maharaja Vijaysinhji ChhatraSinhji Sahib to the throne in 1915. He was a charming and suave ruler, also known for his great administration. He was a fond equestrian and well known for his love for horses, food, and the good life. His horses won the Indian Derby, the Irish Derby, and the Belgian Grand Prix. But his shining moment was winning the prestigious Epsom Derby in England in 1934 with his horse Windsor Lad. Maharaja Vijaysinhji was also fond of cooking and his most popular recipe was the Chicken Rajpipla. I’d first come across this recipe when I was interacting with Nilufer Dhondy, a fabulous cook who specialises in Parsi food. Though

What Is Food Blogging & Career As A Food Blogger

 What Is Food Blogging & Career As A Food Blogger T his might seem like a silly thing to write about, considering we are the world’s only food blogging platform, but here is why we decided people needed to know about this. Sometime back when we had published an article in the magazine about what it takes to be a successful food blogger, we had a flurry of emails asking what food blogging is really about. While most food bloggers may know what food blogging is about, does the world know what food blogging is? Honestly even I am confused at times, is it a journal about the food I’m cooking, the stuff I’m eating, restaurants I’m visiting? Or is it a license to gawk at bowls, plates and cups, thinking of props and stopping at random places to look at discarded pieces of wood that can be used as a rustic background for your images? I say this, because I have done all this and more. So let’s start with what can be construed as food blogging: The Cooking and Posting Bloggers:  These are t
