"A large portion of our sales came from people coming from the Arsht Center, the American Airlines Arena, and the clubs downtown," Fouquier says. "COVID took a toll on arts and entertainment all over the world, and it took a toll on downtown Miami." The restaurateur, who made Zagat's 30 Under 30 List a few years back, said Fooq's went from doing 150 covers a night on weekends to a little over a dozen.

In the 1980s, everyone from Madonna to tennis star Andre Agassi wore them. Then they were ostracized as "uncool." But a trip to any department store today will find an ample supply of acid-wash "mom jeans," there to be scooped up by "on trend" social-media fashionistas. Food, like fashion, also has its moments.
