As of May 1, 2020, some Dallas restaurants opened their patios and dining rooms for dine-in guests. Restaurants may reopen their dining rooms at 25% capacity and patios, courtyards, and other outdoor dining spaces open at full capacity, within social distancing guidelines.
Many restaurants are also offering ‘grab and go‘ pantry and meal kits. Fireside Pies has a wonderful pizza meal kit that the whole family will love. It includes everything you need to prepare a fresh, hot delicious pizza. The Rustic restaurant sells ready-to-cook “Quarantine & Chill” kits for fajitas and brunch, packed with meat, potatoes, butter, eggs, and ingredients for mixed drinks. And Plano’s Whiskey Cake offers quarantine survival kits stocked with meat, chicken, eggs, pasta, butter, milk, and toilet paper.
