5. COVID-19 dining out: Restaurants take to the streets to create socially distanced dining rooms as nation reopens
In this article, they’re talking about how restaurants are now taking to the streets to create socially distanced places to sit as restrictions are being lifted with new guidelines.

I know this is something big cities have been looking for a while. This just might be the tip of the iceberg.
Cameron, I enjoyed reading the article about restaurants taking dining to the streets. I think its a fantastic idea. I'm really interested in seeing the new normal as things begin to open up and what the most successful places will be doing.
