[Explanation] On March 12th, Kunming issued a notice saying that the catering service of Kunming City will be resumed from 00:00 on the 13th. At noon on the 13th, the reporter visited a number of restaurants in Kunming and saw that many citizens have begun to dine in the restaurant, of which hot pot is the most popular.
[Explanation] The reporter saw at a hot pot restaurant in Joy City that many tables in the store displayed a "No Reception" sign and received it across the table. Citizens need to take a temperature measurement, disinfection, and scan code before registering.
[Contemporaneous] (Diner Army) Because of this epidemic, I stayed at home for two months. Every day I had those dishes. I had long wanted to change my taste.
[Contemporary] (Diner Gong Dakui) I am very excited and happy, and "closed" at home for two months to hear the good news and relax.
[Explanation] Wang Congxiang, the manager of the hotpot restaurant, introduced that there were more than 20 table diners in the shop at noon that day, and the tables in the evening had been reserved.
[Contemporary] (Shop manager Wang Congxiang) The first day of telling the truth today is still very exciting, because we are going out of business for two months, and we haven't earned enough money to tell the truth. We are still very optimistic about the future. For the old customers of Dayu, I made a lot of calls today to request a table. I think the prospect is still very good.
[Explanation] In another restaurant specializing in Cantonese cuisine, in addition to the necessary disinfection and registration measures, partitions have been added to the table to ensure the safety of diners.
[Contemporary] (Director Zhou Guomei) I hope that two people can eat alone or one family can eat alone, that is, there is a space for isolation, which is more conducive to prevention.
[Explanation] During the visit, the reporter found that most of the restaurants have resumed business, and the rest of the restaurants are actively preparing for opening. Among the restaurants that have opened, the hottest is hot pot. Many citizens said that hot pots have an atmosphere only when they are eaten in the store, so they go to the store for consumption whenever conditions permit.
[Contemporary] (Director Wang Congxiang) Although we have resumed the dine-in now, I think our customers should also obey an arrangement in our store. As far as possible, listen to our arrangement and sit separately, so that after everyone supports our work, you can slowly receive it after the epidemic.
[Explanation] The announcement issued by Kunming City encourages the use of advance reservations and other methods to guide customers to enter the restaurant at different times, batches, and peaks. The attendance rate of medium-sized (and above) restaurants must not exceed 1/2 of the total number of seats. Small restaurants, snack bars, and fast-food restaurants are fully open; the distance between each seat is not less than 1 meter.
