NEW YORK: New York City restaurants will be able to resume indoor dining at 25 per cent capacity at the end of the month, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Wednesday , relaxing one of last big COVID-19 limitations in the nation's most populous city.
In June, outdoor dining was approved, and restaurants got creative by putting tables on sidewalks, rooftops and even boats, festooning them with lights, umbrellas and festive decor. A plan to reopen indoor dining in July was delayed due to COVID-19 concerns."Twenty-five per cent is not that much, but it's something where you can do some math and know, more or less, how many customers you can have every day," said Giovanni Gelfini, the owner of Santa Panza, a restaurant in Brooklyn.
At a news conference, Cuomo acknowledged the risk of future outbreaks but also stressed the economic pain the restrictions have caused. He said capacity could be lifted to 50 per cent by Nov 1.
