Ottolenghi: 'Restaurants need rent-free period to survive’
Restauranteur and food writer Yotam Ottolenghi has told ±«Óătv Radio 5 Live restaurants need a “rent-free period” in order to survive after lockdown is lifted.
Speaking to Emma Barnett, Yotam said he feels “confident” that the UK government will help the restaurant industry with rent freezes once they are allowed to open but still have to enforce social distancing between customers.
