Sad news for everyone involved
A Michelin-trained chef, whose two Nottingham restaurants closed this year, compared business to being in the ring with Mike Tyson. James Crossman, who has been in the industry for 25 years, said: "It felt like we were one of Mike Tyson's early opponents - you haven't got a leg to stand on but you're going to try and finish the fight."
"With the ripple effect from Covid, then the fuel crisis and the energy crisis, and cost of living crisis, everybody is feeling the pinch. It's in your face all the time so people don't go out, you're constantly being reminded that everything has gone up so much." Some of the staff complained that the 80-seater Paris restaurant closed just before pay day but Mr Crossman said it hadn't been his decision. He found out in a phone call from one of the four investors, one of whom was his uncle, Antony Crossman.
