PANDEMIC IN SPRINGTIME 5 - PANADERIA LILLYS


Unlike most American cities, we don't have a big Latino population but of course there is some. Its commercial center is Cherokee Street, where the businesses are mixed with an eclectic bunch of restaurants (Hispanic and not), bars, art galleries, night clubs and clothing stores. This is where you come if you want genuine pan Mexicana, a pair of hand tooled botas de vaquero or an old-fashioned dulceria

No one knows how many of these businesses will survive the pandemic. Several restaurants sell take away food at the door but is it enough to get by? I fear that a number of bars, breweries and galleries won't make it. Check back in the fall.

I really hope small businesses like this can pull themselves back up Bob, maybe it's up to us, the general public, to help by supporting them a lot when things are hopefully back to normal. Happy weekend to you both 💙

I think the same is in store here.
