<title>For Hotels, Restaurants a Cautionary Tale &amp; By David Eisen</title>
<link>https://www.restaurantnewsresource.com/article116178.html</link>
<guid>https://www.restaurantnewsresource.com/article116178.html</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Vulnerability and loss of control are two of COVID-19&#039;s biggest lessons. Unlike past threats, this one was unique in its ability to deliver damage under the guise of invisibility. It couldn&#039;t be seen; it couldn&#039;t be heard; it couldn&#039;t be smelled; it couldn&#039;t be touched. But its impact was like a Category 5 storm: deadly, destructive, leaving nothing unaffected in its path.  The tempest has simmered, but in the clearing is no rainbow. Instead, hotels are saddled with a host of new challenges: labor woes, supply chain worry and other P&amp;L headaches. ]]></description>
