'New normal' for dining out is simply absurdLast week my family decided to take advantage of the second phase of relaxed lockdown measures by eating out. This reminds me of a recent "new normal" rule suggested by the Thai Health Promotion Foundation asking people to no longer eat sticky rice with their hands. Growing up in the Northeast, I've seen how farmers and workers eat sticky rice with their hands because of the convenience. They insist doing so makes the sticky rice tastier. With those partitions, family members are separated but can still share dishes that are served on a Chinese-style dining table, with an elevated spinning platform in the middle.
