Amsterdam-based restaurant Mediamatic has come up with an innovative and wonderful solution to ensure that guests adhere to the recommended social distance.
As countries across Europe slowly ease measures related to the novel coronavirus pandemic, restaurants are also starting to experiment with new ways to ensure guests can dine safely. Mediamatic Restaurant from Amsterdam has come up with an innovative and wonderful solution to ensure that guests adhere to the recommended social distance. So they are by the river Oosterdok set up smaller greenhouses that enable an intimate dinner for two.
"In restaurants and bars, a separate room is traditionally called a chamber séparée (fr.)," they comment on their publication on the official website at Mediamatic. "It offers you sexy intimacy: things can happen here that should remain hidden from the public eye and should not be heard by everyone. We decided to also name our greenhouses in French. Although what will happen inside them will be much more public…”
Serres Séparées (fr., separate greenhouses) thus offer a safe and intimate dinner by the water. The restaurant is currently testing the idea, as restaurants in the Netherlands can only open on June 1. The plan takes into account both the customers and the people who work there. Thus, for example, staff wearing protective equipment at all times, and the food will be served on wooden boards, where a distance of 1.5 meters is guaranteed. At Medimatic, they hope to be able to open in June, and they will start accepting reservations the last week of May.
