损兵折将的美国餐饮业
Thousands of restaurants have filed for bankruptcy in the last few months.
最近几个月以来已经有上千家餐馆申请了破产。
A recent report from Yelp found that nearly 25,000 restaurants have closed since March and more than half may never reopen.
从口碑网最近的一份报告看出,三月份以来,大约有超过25,000家餐馆关闭,并且其中的一半以上可能再也不会重新开张了。
The pain is being felt throughout the restaurant sector.
整个餐饮业都遭受了重创。
Big chains are struggling: IHOP recently filed for Bankruptcy, along with Wendy's, Le Pain Quotidien, Chuck E. Cheese, and Sweet Tomatoes and Souplantation.
那些大型的连锁餐饮机构也举步维艰,国际松饼屋最近申请破产,同时申请破产的还有温迪家餐馆,日用面包房,查克奶酪店,甜甜番茄以及素食餐厅。
But it's small restaurants that are really suffering.
承受打击最大的还是那些小餐馆。
Most are independently owned; they don't have the protection that size and scale can bring; and they generally don't have much money stored away for tough times.
他们大部分都是自家运营的,没有那些大餐馆的规模带来的保护,他们通常资产也不多,没法渡过这个难关。
It's estimated that as many as 20% of restaurants in the U.S. might not make it, especially when the weather gets colder and many places have to close patios and outdoor seating.
据估算,美国大约有20%的餐馆倒闭,尤其是随着天气越来越冷,很多地方都不能在户外摆桌子经营了。
