Among the victims of the 2007–2009 recession were luxury restaurants in New York, Chicago, and other large cities. Rubicon, a top-rated San Francisco restaurant, closed in August 2008. The Blue Water Grill in Chicago also closed. Other restaurants attempted to survive by offering discounts. High-end New York restaurant Jean Georges slashed prices for three- and four-course meals. Other restaurants followed suit, some offering three-course meals for less than $20; the London Grill in Philadelphia offered a lobster or beef meal for $18.95. To avoid high labor costs, San Francisco’s Fifth Floor started an “Honor Bar” where customers place money in a box on the honor system and pour their own wine. An article summarizing the woes of the restaurant industry commented: Currently, consumers appear to be “trading down,” choosing lower-priced restaurants than they used to. The National Restaurant Association projects sales, adjusted for inflation, will decline by 2.5% in full service restaurants in 2009, while it predicts quick service will grow by 0.4%. Stephen Hanson, who closed several of his once-successful restaurants in New York and Chicago, has had better luck with restaurants that offer less expensive meals. Mr. Hanson explained the success of his big restaurants that earn a small profit from a large number of customers: “I’m in the volume business.” By 2010, business at upscale and other restaurants began to recover as the recession ended. 1.
