Can this make any sense?
We go down to Plaza, Discovery Bay style, just before 6:00 pm as that’s when the new restrictions come into play. Dining at Il Bel Paese, which has refurbed in these virus days. New cutlery and crockery, elicited many positive comments, as I’m told by the waiter when I too effuse. We order, pasta, salad and prosecco. All served as normal, on the new gear.
Then, come 6:00 pm and they have to remove said cuttle-crock and replace all with plastic, plates, knives, forks and glasses. There is no difference in social distancing but we’re abiding by the new regulations, apparently.
In short: zero benefit in keeping virus at bay. And we end up with a pile of plastic. Which we help get rid of with the people who take over our table. In the trash, as there’s no recycle bin. (While: pandemic rubbish piles up).
Crazy, what?
