There is a ‘new normal’ to the dining experience and this includes temperature check as well as proper social distancing by limiting restaurant capacities to 50 per cent and with restriction of only four people per table.
For those who are still uncomfortable dining out and exposing their families to possible infections, we are bringing back ‘Cook Like A Chef’ where we ask reputable and unique chefs to share easy-to-do recipes at home.
The food at home doesn’t have to be stale and repetitive.
