This made my heart pretty heavy. I learned about Prune and Gabrielle from "Mind of a Chef", and her cuisine just seemed absolutely fascinating. It was definitely among the most intriguing of that series. I had planned to make a beeline there the next time I was in New York. Who knows exactly why the restaurant was unable to transition to the takeout model that many are now subsisting on (at least here in LA). Maybe it's just that NYC has been hit particularly hard by the virus and peoples' habits have been too-far eroded there. In any case, I hope she is able to continue at a later time. It's sad to think of all the truly good small restaurants with visionary chefs going under and leaving us with very little other than mega-conglomerates to serve us food outside the home.
