During the COVD-19 shutdown, Los Angeles restaurants were deemed essential businesses, so with minimal guidance, they were forced to overhaul business models to scramble and survive. While quarantine diners enjoyed takeout and delivery as an act of normalcy, chefs and operators struggled through an unprecedented crisis. Each episode is a snapshot in time. Just one day in their ongoing fight to keep their restaurants afloat, staff employed, communities fed, and dreams alive. All for the love of restaurants. This four-part docuseries, in partnership with Resy, goes behind the scenes to share the pains and joys of LA’s most beloved restaurants during the pandemic — and how restaurants’ roles in our lives, communities, and cities are more essential than ever.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, two successful restaurateurs, Sarah Hymanson and Sara Kramer, pivot their beloved Los Angeles mediterrean restaurant, Kismet, from a full service restaurant to an online marketplace to serve their community. We get a first hand glimpse of their daily struggles navigating their journey with lack of information from the government to what motivates them everyday.
