Now is the time to talk about a new web series available now, an innovative way to be able to eat outside, on a terrace, and significant investments despite the current crisis in the restaurant world.
First, In Command with Mathieu Dufour is a new webseries for DoorDash launched just recently, available on ICI Tou.tv and showcasing local restaurants. Dufour is always accompanied by talents from here, such as musicians and comedians, who tell anecdotes about their careers while showing visitors to establishments located between Montreal and Quebec.
And if ever the dining rooms could open again, either in January, February or March, we advise you to reserve as soon as possible one of the heated domes on the winter terrace at Ophelia in Quebec. Please note that there are only three available and they can normally accommodate up to four people. They are available for two services only, those of 6 p.m. and 9 p.m.
Finally, despite the current crisis, transactions take place regularly in the restaurant business and investments are also numerous. This is the case here as the Fusée rotisserie, a chain with 21 franchised restaurants in the province, was sold to Foodtastic. The objective of Foodtastic, which has other brands in the chicken sector such as Au Coq, Rôtisserie Joliette and Rôtisseries Benny, is first to modernize the rotisseries, to open new franchises and to extend the offer to across Canada.
For the Thaïzone chain, sales are not on the agenda, while the money is instead invested in the new brand image and the development of a new, more family-friendly menu. Also, nearly 30 restaurants will be renovated over the next few months, a new way to collect your order has been implemented due to COVID and the chain is now showing growth!
