List Restaurants that enforce masks in kitchen

[RICH1]

Can we put together a list of Local Restaurants that enforce Masks to be worn by kitchen staff in the kitchen, and of course servers?
I love the Ale House for that reason! They enforce masks and have optional outdoor seating..

Whether you agree with the Governor, I prefer to eat my food without droplets of saliva from kitchen staff.. I will not patronize Giovanni's pizza for that reason! Thank you !

Wolfgang Puck. It is an open kitchen and everyone was wearing a mask.

But that has always been my preference. Hopefully (?), you do realize you CANNOT contract COVID in that fashion

So, didn’t bother you before the pandemic? You know the song that Silver Fox sang? “ no one knows what goes on behind closed doors”

These people cannot social distance. If everyone is wearing a mask at least they are not spreading the disease to each other and the customers.

Spreading it from the kitchen---how?????

From the kitchen to the waitstaff. You were the one who told me that when people are indoors and cannot social distance they should be wearing masks.

That is correct. But restaurants usually have a "pass", where the chef puts the food and the wait staff picks it up at some point---in most instances the chef and waiter are more than 6 feet apart. I'm sure there are exceptions, but remember the OP was concerned over "saliva in his food", which can't transmit the disease (about a million other diseases, but not COVID)

We were at Giovanni's a couple of weeks ago and on the way out noticed nobody in kitchen was wearing a mask even though all servers were doing so.

As a result we will not go back until vaccine comes to us.

BTW have always loved the place but for some reason the four of us all felt food not as good as before.

Instead of ridiculing him on this point wouldn’t it be better to list the restaurants that are making an attempt to keep their customers and employees safe?

What part of this seemingly reasonable explanation was ridiculing?

I believe the point is that mask wearing in the kitchen has little or nothing to do with customer safety.

I also heard that COVID is not transmitted via food. When I first heard that, many months ago, I stopped sanitizing all my groceries. I don’t worry any more about food borne illness with COVID.

What would we do without our at least weekly mask thread! That poor dead horse is just bloody pulp on the ground now. We need a dog poop post for something different to grouse about.

I think the purpose of the original post was to trash Giovanni's.

Excuuuuuusssse me. Where was the ridicule? The post was educational. And why would I want to contribute to a list of restaurants that were doing something completely unnecessary. Better to have a list of restaurants that emphasize social distancing, masks on servers, and even temperature checks

So if the cooks get sick it’s ok as long as it does not get spread to the customers.

Of course not, but that's a different issue. The OP was looking for "safe" restaurants based on whether or not the kitchen staff wore masks. That is a small part of COVID safety in a restaurant

I agree but it still indicates restaurants that are making an effort to follow guidelines which are the ones I want to go to.
