‘The new normal’ is a phrase you’re no doubt sick of hearing - but when it comes to keeping Glasgow’s brilliant bars and restaurants afloat, we’re all for it.
The coronavirus crisis and resulting lockdown spelled the end, even temporarily, for many local businesses and may still cause negative effects in the months to come.
And while it’s never been more important to maintain safety through social distancing measures, as lockdown looks set to ease gradually, we at Glasgow Live are keen to show support for the many eateries we’ve spent the last four years shouting good things about.
It’s for that reason that we’ve taken our food and drink newsletter out of retirement, bringing you a weekly dose of foodie news from across the city and focusing on local business over big chains.
Yes, we might get a little bit excited when McDonald’s drive-thrus reopen and we’re all partial to a Greggs now and then - but more important are the updates on your Paesano pizza, pasta and prosecco from Te Seba, your takeaway pints of draught beer and how you can support your favourite restaurants through this tough time.
If you love food and you haven’t yet subscribed to our weekly newsletter then you’re in luck - the next one lands in your inbox on Thursday night, just in time for the weekend.
Sign up here and we’ll try and keep you updated on all the latest news, reviews and other fun food-related stuff.
The new normal may not be as fun as a Saturday night in the pub, but we hope we can help to bring back some of your regular creature comforts and keep businesses afloat while we’re at it.
