Welcome to Let’s Eat Marbella
Who thought, when we were saying, 'well 2021 will be better' that we would have another lockdown that will keep us under wraps until at least March.
Fellow restaurateurs are being kicked in the teeth and that's when they are already in the gutter. In true landlord style (not all I will admit) one restaurant I know, where the owner had worked years to get working and promote, even during 2020, has had his rent put up to such a huge amount that meant it was unviable — especially under present conditions — and has had to leave. The landlord now has to rent it again. By the time he has to wait and by the time he has had to reduce the rent for the first year to get somone interested, he may as well have kept the rent the same as it was and keep a reliable tenant.
It reminds me of the small Spanish bar that was going through a hard time; so waht did he do? Haapy Hours or 2 for 1 or other such promtions? NO, he put his prices up — and got less clients. Takes some believing doesn't it?
On my Home Page there is a ‘Donate Button’. Writing a column can be a hard task and to keep it interesting and current, involves hard work and research as well as contacts and co-operation from others in the community and our industry. This means a long day at the keyboards writing about a subject that is dear to my heart; ‘food, wine and friends’. As writing is now my only form of income, be it minimal, I am hoping that readers of the column will be able to see their way to posting 5/10/15 euro or whatever you think it may be worth on a monthly basis in order to support the page. It is a Pay Pal system or direct Bank Transfer, just click on the button to show your intent, should you be interested..
