Reposted • @castirongroup . Over the past 48 hours we have been forced to suspend employment for all staff across 5 companies with the exception of a small handful of the management team. The truth is we are in real financial turmoil, and we are doing everything in our power to have the privilege of welcoming our teams back to work in the near future. . Many of you have reached out and asked how you can help. Keep an eye out for @dashiramen's delivery service announcement soon, and remember that @ponysaurusbrewing can be purchased in grocery stores, retail shops and select restaurants offering to go services! Thank you for your outpouring of love and kindness – it has been a clear silver lining in this chaos. . Beautiful photo by @estlinhaiss

Posted from @castirongroup • So many of you have reached out to ask us how to help our industry. There will be many asks but here is an immediate one: DONATE NOW to the Triangle Restaurant Workers Relief Fund, which will award immediate grants to Triangle-area hospitality workers that have experienced income loss due to restaurant closures because of COVID-19. We’re so grateful to The Frankie Lemmon Foundation for hosting this relief fund, and grateful to this community for its outpouring of support. Follow the link in @castirongroup bio to donate! 💕

This weekend calls for beers and delicious food like our chicken shawarma plate! 📍Today we'll be at 1️⃣ @artmarketdurham from 10 AM-12:20 PM & 2️⃣ @ponysaurusbrewing from 2-10 PM!

Posted • @castirongroup • In the wake of COVID-19, we are taking special precautions to keep both guests and staff as safe as possible throughout the Cast Iron Group businesses. All communally retrieved items, such as condiments, utensils, plates and napkins, have been removed, and will be handed individually to each guest. Any items that pass from guest to guest, such as menus, are being wiped down and sanitized after every use. All staff members are following policies regarding hand washing upon entering our buildings, throughout their shift, after any money transactions, bussing tables, and touching door handles. All handles, railings, pens, computer screens, table surfaces and chairs are being sanitized with disinfectant that is changed out throughout our shifts. Any staff showing signs of illness must refrain from working, and we are all practicing social distancing, making sure everyone in our buildings are greeting each other by waving or elbow bump (what we call the chicken wing handshake) - hey, if everyone is doing it around you, it's easier to remember and no one gets offended! This is just an excerpt of the many things we are doing to safeguard you and our team. We understand if you choose to take any personal precautions to feel safe at this time, but hope you are reassured by our vigilance to dine and drink with not only with us, but the many other trusted local businesses in the Triangle 💓
