Governor Orders All Bars and Restaurants to Close Seating Areas

Governor Pritzker announced this afternoon that all restaurants and bars in the state would only be allowed to offer takeout and delivery. No seated dining. Imagine what this will do to operations like Yamato and Fujiyama, as well as Golden Corral and Qin Guan. All four can offer carry-out but much of what you go to Yamato and Fujiyama is the show at the table and when I go to Qin Guan, I go there to sample a variety of different dishes, not to fill up a container for take out.

Also wonder what the state has in place to compensate restaurants and bars for lost sales.
