On Tuesday, December 1, the National Restaurant Salt Award 2020 was presented in Ukraine.
2,250 nominee establishments were nominated for the award in 2020, 162 of them became finalists for Salt 2020, and only 18 received the coveted award: copper pans. The award ceremony took place at the Parkovy Exhibition and Convention Center, from where the broadcast was broadcast online, as the usual solemn ceremony was prevented by quarantine restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic. This year awards were given to the best establishments in Kyiv, Kharkov, Dnipro, Khmelnitsky and Odessa.
This year the word resilience has become the main word in the restaurant business and not only. Clench your teeth and hold on. If all the teeth are in place and there is something to hold on to, then we will break through
