While the world shutters in fear of Coronavirus I wanted to offer ways you can help your community during these unusual times.
First and foremost I urge everyone to stay home and maintain social distancing!
Since I run a culinary travel site and all travel (besides emergency) is strongly discouraged and/or banned depending on where you live, I’ll be solely sharing some of my favorite home-cooked meals and drinks to help my readers make the most of their time at home.
But while you’re home safe and sharpening your cooking skills, y0u can still help support your favorite local restaurants – because the business owners and their staff need it right now!
How to help our community and local restaurants:
- Order delivery and take out – add extra tip if you can!
- Purchase gift cards to restaurants that you can gift to others or use yourself when life is back to normal
- Follow your local restaurants on social media to see how you might be able to help
- Some restaurants that need to close their doors completely are selling their ingredients to customers. This is a win-win-win! Food doesn’t go to waste, you’re helping a local business owner make some of their money back, and you get to bring home some quality ingredients.
- Some restaurants are using their skill to feed front line heroes! These spots are asking for financial contributions from their communities in an effort to they can keep their kitchen stocked, staff employed and so they can prepare meals and deliver them to hospitals.
- Even if you can’t financially help, be sure to Like/Share these posts to get as many eyeballs on these requests as possible!
We each have a roll to play in helping our communities do their best in this unnerving time. I wish each of you and your families an abundance of health and safety.
