This week, we spoke with Michael McHenry about how he keeps his Salt Lake City restaurants relevant during the pandemic. In this video, McHenry discussed how he and his team have adjusted to the new realities, returned to profitability and created a stronger team in the process.

The National Restaurant Association also released new numbers that showed that 10,000 restaurants have closed in the past three months.
