So we actually have cafes and restaurants open for a max of 10 people. Today is our payday so the old man and I booked in at this new eatery for 7 am breakfast. One other person ate by themselves otherwise we had the place to ourselves. One waitress. One cook. A sign of the times but it was nice to eat out for a change…
I had savory mince on potato rosti with a poached egg, hollandaise sauce and toast. Very nice meal and a rather interesting experience.
My son is a bartender and a waiter at a sports bar. He is fine on unemployment right now but when the federal government’s kicker ends in July he will be in trouble.
Hopefully they extend the extra unemployment benefits. I don’t think the restaurant industry is going back to normal anytime soon.
Yeah it’s hard in retail. We’ve had some decent government support but agree. It’ll be a changed landscape for sure for a while. It is nice to eat out though and not worry about cooking here or cleaning up. Don’t mind supporting local business rather than the usual Maccas and other franchises.
