The closure of a handful of high profile restaurants in Sydney and Melbourne in recent weeks has painted a picture of a hospitality industry in crisis.
Tetsuya's, Lucky Kwong, La Luna, Botswana Butchery, Redbird, Raja, Khanaa, Tequila Daisy ... if they're not already closed, they have a closing date. And a Sydney Morning Herald story this month suggested "industry pundits fear the restaurant closure tally will mount in the coming months".
