Will you eat in an enclosed Restaurant when the door's open?

I am not happy with the way my hair is "misbehaving" these days.
My wife has agreed to break out her dog grooming tools and work on me this Sat.
Who knows, I might wind up looking like a Bichon.

In Austin, restaurants are going to use all disposable service, paper and plastic, starting tomorrow. We may go to one of our favorites, just to see how this is going to go. I'm fine never dining out, again, but Janet and I like the social experience, even though, as a gourmet vegan chef, my meals are better prepared, and tastier.
 
The restaurants fear in Ohio aren't opening up yet and I'm not sure when they will or if it will be this month or not.

I think I'd be afraid to dine in at a restaurant for quite a while.

I'm not a bad cook and I come up with pretty good things to mix together and I'm happy with that for now.
 
Much as I would like to, I am not planning to eat out for some time and even then it will depend on the restaurant. Hubby on the other hand loves to eat out so he'll have to settle for takeout for the time being.
 
We enjoy eating out...well I do more than m y husband but we go out regularly .. However aside from fast food joints which will do take -away only.. it's been said only yesterday that restaurants and pubs will be last on the list to open here, and may not do so until Christmas... :(
 
I will be going out on day one.I will happily go in a restaurant,,chippy,cafe,to a concert or sports event.I am not going to stay in at all once we are allowed out.
It amazes that people would even would even want to continue isolating after restrictions end.I am going stir crazy,here at home,alone, with no social contact at all.I cannot envisage continuing like that once i am allowed out.

In that case we are never going out again.Everyone seems to have missed last weeks announcement from WHO that this is not going away and we have to learn to live with it without lockdown.They said there is no guarantee of a cure or vaccine.So lets stop assuming there will be either and get our lives back.

You are allowed out Furrry... why are you staying home with no contact at all.?...You could go for a walk, and chat to people at a distance in the park ( no ?)... or in the supermarkets, or any stores that are now re-opening currently ... I know it's not ideal but as long as you keep your distance, there's no problem going out...and chatting to people

Wales is under much stricter rules than England.We are allowed out once a day,for no more than an hour to shop or exercise.But not both.
i am not allowed to have a visitor or visit anyone.You can go out with someone if that person lives with you.Even family members are barred from visiting.
Unlike in England our parks our closed and you cannot travel to the countryside for exercise.
Security patrols the local boating lake to prevent visitors.
This is reality courtesy of the Welsh Assembly who have devolved health powers.We could remain under lockdown when it has ended in England.
We can also only shop’in our local area’One Welsh police force was preventing people from travelling to out of town supermarkets due to this rule.

the first half of your post is the same rules as here ... although lots of people ignore them... .
..Furry you're in Wales, how is your rules different to England.. Boris is your leader same as here... it's not like wee jimmy Krankey in Scotland trying to take control :D

Our parks are open..but we're not supposed to sit down so the benches are taped off... and the police will tell anyone to stand up if they're sitting on the grass but it doesn\'t stop hundred walking through the London parks... . The beaches are supposedly closed but the promenades are not so again people can walk there for exercise... but again so many not practising social distancing.
The only parks here that are closed are the children's playgrounds...

The latest recommendations are now, that you can go a reasonable distance for exercise as long as you take twice as long as it took you to get there for the exercise, that was on the news just a week ago. So, you can drive for 1/2 an hour for example .. to the countryside, or coast or wherever you wish .... and as long as you exercise for at least double that time, that's walking, or cycling, or jogging, then you're perfectly permitted to do so... in law.!!... An MP was closely quizzed on this and she made it very plain all of the above... so I know that's correct..

I know it must be very hard for you,:( I'm climbing the walls and I have my o/h at home currently..so I can imagine how you must be feeling for lack of company ... I'll be the same when hubs goes back to working an 80 hour week....(he returns next week for a couple of days to start with... )

ETA...sorry I just read your piece about the devolved health powers from the welsh assembly....:eek:

People have been fined for doing things they thought they thought they could do because they have seen things in the National media.Didn’t realise things were different in Wales.
Last weekend English people crossing into Wales to exercise in country areas were falling foul of our rules.

Restaurants open tomorrow in Texas at 25% occupancy. Will be watching on the local news how it goes.
Not all are opening, Some are choosing to stay closed for now.

I don't think reopening restaurants has been much of a success in this area today from everything I'm hearing. People don't seem that willing to push it yet. Maybe shopping centers are getting some customer traffic.

Biggest problem is the testing for the virus .... they need to get that figured out ASAP.
 
I'll go. Especially diners and fast food where I can watch and see how the food is prepared along with employee habits. Hate take out unless I'm there waiting for it. And when I dine in it's naturally hot, I don't have to microwave it once home. Can't get into big restaurant or fine dining as-is for other reasons.

Unless somebody coughs or sneezes on you or food the basics like hand washing should help just before the meal.
 
Well, Janet and I roamed around Austin, today, for about three hours. We didn't hit any restaurants, but went to upscale shopping strips and a few grocery stores. We also visited a very large crafts store.

All in all, it felt great to be out and about, again, great to see people shuffling around. The only negative was that a few of the folks we saw did not wear any PPE. Hopefully, these ignoramuses will have someone educate them on how to avoid prolonging the run of cv19 by protecting themselves and those whom they care about.
 
Dave is chomping at the bit. Me? Not so much. Our county of almost 600,000 folks has had 250 cases recorded. That's a pretty small percentage. Like miniscule. Many of those are in nursing homes. So I'm kinda ready to unclench, so to speak, but maybe not just yet. Had happy hour with some friends on a back porch today. Not exactly social distancing. But no hugs. :( Hurry, vaccine, hurry! Will I take a relatively untested vaccine? In a heartbeat. Because living this way is not living.
 
Yes, I would, but I'll make a hole in my mask so I can eat & be safe.
