Dining Tips During the Pandemic

Restaurant service is always a challenge and it's especially difficult now. Restaurants didn't plan to serve their food in a box or on a patio with a mask. They're working hard to comply with changing regulations. Here are some suggestions to remember. (1) ORDER ONLINE AND PAY IN ADVANCE whenever possible; (2) Don't use THIRD-PARTY APPS, whenever possible, they are expensive to restaurants; (3) Make a RESERVATION don't stand in a crowd outside, sign in if you can and wait to be called; (4) MASK IN and MASK OUT; (5) Don't ask STRESSFUL questions they probably don't have answers to; (5) DON'T LINGER (6) Don't PESTER SERVERS for service, consolidate your needs; (7) DRESS FOR WEATHER it may get cool outside; (8) BE PATIENT everything is new and mistakes are going to happen; (9) BE KIND everyone wants you to have a good time.
