With restaurants all over America laying off workers because of new restrictions to hopefully stop the spread of coronavirus, Jimmy’s Famous Seafood in Baltimore, well known to Twitchy readers for its trolling of PETA, is doing something to help those affected. A whole lot of something, and it’s fantastic:
If you’re looking for an example of how to respond to the effects #Covid_19 will have on the restaurant and service industry and its people, the likes of @chefjoseandres come to mind, but my cousin at @JimmysSeafood stands tall too in stepping up to help.
