So a sit-down restaurant was a sit-down restaurant pre-COVID, then became not a sit-down restaurant during COVID just because the style of waiting/serving became different. That's a tilted definition



You seem to be trying to pick at words needlessly. Why does Covid matter now?


Because the same restaurant was considered a sit down joint and then it wasn’t because a QR code was used instead of whatever this requirement of needing a waiter to take your order. Do you not see how ridiculous that is. You came in, ordered food, someone cooked it, they brought it to you, you ate it while sitting down. You might have even ordered drinks too. You might have even done that with friends or family. How is that not a sit down place? Your definition is trivial and not really useful, but sure, it’s me needlessly being picky with words


What are you even going on about? QR codes make no real difference. Though in America I have not seen many great implementations and I would guess many would be fast food or fast casual. It’s the level of service being provided. It implies you are spending time eating with a level of service being provided. Weird
