There is minimal movement among tables and social distancing is easy to enforce. Takeaway is not an option either. A sit-down restaurant’s expenses far outstrip those of any other form of eatery and “cannot just be switched off when limited trade is enforced”, adds Harding. The futures of a million people in the sector hang on Ramaphosa’s 11 July decision… so, this requires some serious thought on the part of government.
