It’s a true shame he’s not here to document some of that change.
I know he’d have hated to see the way that covid decimated the industry in a lot of ways, but there’s a story of what was lost that he’d have done some justice to.
I honestly think he would not have survived COVID. His greatest joy in life suffered greatly; in a way I am glad he was spared the despaire that COVID’s effects on the restaurant industry would have brought him. He left us devoid of his perspective when things were great, and saved us sharing his sorrow in how things went.
He would have given a poignant and wonderful perspective on the situation(as he always had), but I feel he would have given his life to share it had he not stepped out when he had.
I don’t know. His death is wrapped in a whole lot of personal/domestic stuff as well.
I don’t doubt he’d have hated the way covid affected the industry, but in NYC it kinda just accelerated the death cycle that most restaurants circle. He’d already watched his city Disneyfied.
The map is 11 years old, some of the locations have moved or closed.

Yeah I’ve thought about that a lot too and agree. Him caged up for months would not be a healthy thing for him. Still fuckin miss him so much though.
