Restaurant Uses Mannequins To Help Social Distancing And Fill Seats

Now that restaurants are starting to slowly open up again and minimal capacities, some owners are using tactics to make them seem more full than they actually are.

According to DC Eater, a Michelin-starred restaurant in the Washington D.C. area is re-opening….but to make the place feel less empty as people are spaced out at different tables, they’ve dressed up mannequins to sit in the rest of the seats.

Part of me thinks this is a clever idea, but I’d also be super creeped out being surrounded by mannequins in a restaurant. What do you think?
