Ditto for my co-workers and we are THE number one restaurant in the area and have been PACKED.

$400 in tips last night.

I really don’t know what to believe anymore — if I was going to get it??? I SURE would have by now!



I'd say masks, good airflow maybe? and being in a county with a lower number of cases has been in your favor. I know someone in Florida who's 22 and was not so lucky and likely got it while at a bar back in July. 50+ days and she's free of it now, but still battling the results of what its done to her.

We're hoping for a November trip as well - hope they get this figured out. Seems quarantining with a negative test makes no sense. If they could do a test on arrival with 24-48 for results, that would be an easy way to deal with it as well as a test before you leave your home.
