Solidarity around the Escalinada, a monument in danger in Old Nice

We are at a pivotal moment in the history of our restaurant and we have only 2 solutions: die or live for many years to come.
The challenge is colossal.
If the future of Escalinada touches you, this is where it happens: https://t.co/GBxP9YaXZ5

The objective of 30,000 euros already reached

After taking over the management in spring 2019, Anthony Bastiand and his partner Christophe Platzgummer are today at the end of their lease-management of the restaurant. To continue the adventure, they must buy back the business. But in these times of crisis the cash is at zero and today they do not have the means. So they launched an online pot at the end of January, which comes to an end on Sunday evening. The objective set at 30,000 euros has already been reached but you can continue to raise the pot until midnight this Sunday.

It’s only a start but it gives us a boost

“It’s incredible this outpouring of solidarity, “welcomes Anthony Bastiand, who nevertheless remains cautious for the future.”This is just the start because we need a lot of money to buy the restaurant and restart the activity. (around 300,000 euros, editor’s note) but it gives us a boost to keep fighting“. Donations made in return for a menu offered when this restaurant, which only offers Nice cuisine, reopens its doors. Today the 8 employees are on short-time work and only the cook remains mobilized to offer take-away meals. What to survive while waiting for the continuation.

Anthony Bastiand will be live Monday morning at 7:25 am on France Bleu Azur to evoke this outpouring of solidarity.
