Jacob Wharton-Shukster explains his business’ pivot in these most challenging of times.

 

In this first look at how our good friends in the food, wine, beer, and spirits world are adjusting to what has rapidly become the new normal in this time of COVID-19, we speak to Parkdale restaurateur (Chantecler/Chantecler Boucherie/Le Phénix) Jacob Wharton-Shukster.

Jacob’s excellent butcher shop Chantecler Boucherie has proven itself to be a very popular location in these trying times, whilst his Le Phénix pop-up restaurant has pivoted to provide delivery and pick-up food.

If you would like to be featured in a similar video interview, or you would like us to publish a personal essay about the ways in which you are planning to maneuver and adjust your actions (personal or business-wise) over the coming weeks/months, please contact us with details here.
