CONNECT WITH THE COMMUNITY
Our beloved community of restaurants and bars is hurting. An already fragile ecosystem that struggled to sustain its restaurants and bars pre-COVID is further struggling to regain its footing in the face of an ever-changing landscape of depleted labor forces, rising product costs, and rampant inflation; all while trying to create remarkable guest experiences and ensure better care for its staff in one of the world’s most competitive markets.
Empty platitudes and pleas for handouts aren’t the remedy… Real talk, real solutions, and real support are. Welcome to Family Meal.
