Description

The losses are starting to mount for Louisville's restaurant scene as the coronavirus shutdown lingers. We talk about that on this week's episode of the Access Louisville podcast.
During the last few weeks we've reported that Scarlett's Bakery and Verbena Cafe have closed as a result the social distancing measures put in place to stem the spread of the virus. There's also been a few others that have closed that weren't a direct result of the virus but it was a contributing factor.
Restaurant reporter Haley Cawthon tells us about all of the above.
As usual we don't just talk about one topic on this show.
We also discuss positive things we've seen come out of the outbreak. We've been trying to roll some of that news into a new feature for our website called Silver Linings. We also chat about our favorite distractions to break up the quarantine blues. There's a little bit of sports talk in there, including this recent report on the Louisville Bats.
Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First. This week's show is hosted by Digital Editor David Mann, Managing Editor Jason Thomas and Cawthon.
