In many parts of the world restaurants have been balancing the cautious return to service with the need to socially distance.
Hospitality is still grappling with what to do in a post-Pandemic world, with solutions ranging from reducing seating number to sealing off parties from one another with plastic shields and curtains.
One Parisian café has even employed the help of giant, stuffed teddy bears to fill empty seats and help maintain distancing between diners. The scenic cafe near the Sorbonne, Le Choupinet employed the fluffy table staff to make the experience more "bearable" for visitors.
Meanwhile, in the Netherlands the vegan restaurant ETEN at the Mediamatic biocentre has found a suitable use for their old greenhouses - using them to keep patrons partitioned and sheltered from the elements.
