Sarah and Robert Dunning, who had both been employed by Bennigan’s, lost their family health insurance when Metromedia Restaurant Group filed for bankruptcy. In addition to Caeden (in his mom’s lap) and Kyler, the Dunnings are expecting a third child.
When Metromedia -- the Plano-based corporate parent of Bennigan's, Steak & Ale and the Tavern -- pushed those chains into bankruptcy last month, it did more than terminate an estimated 8,000 U.S. restaurant jobs. It also threw thousands of employees and former employees who depended on the company's health plans into coverage limbo.
