Or so they say. But it also seems to bring out some truly <strong>wacky ideas<\/strong>. As we monitor developments and innovations in <strong>restaurant social distancing<\/strong>, we have come across a few ideas that are probably out of reach of the average restaurateur. And that may be for the best, actually. Here are some of our favorite kooky, wild, and outlandish concepts.<\/p>\r\n<h2>The Absurd &amp; the Sublime<\/h2>\r\n<p>Let&#8217;s get these out of the way first. If you want to get some publicity for your establishment, then these ideas might be right for you. But for the majority of operators, these ideas are just a source of bemusement. So to be clear, we are <strong>not actually recommending any of these ideas<\/strong>. We are just presenting them for your review.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Mannequin Seat Fillers<\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\">For example, you could use <strong>mannequins to fill up the empty seats<\/strong> in your restaurant as an attempt to make the social distancing space feel less empty. Unfortunately, the empty feeling will probably be replaced with a creepy feeling, which isn&#8217;t necessarily better.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_5231\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5231\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5231\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wasserstrom.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/social-distancing1.jpg\" alt=\"Mannequins to make the space feel less empty.

These outdoor pods allow guests to be completely isolated. Servers use <strong>wooden planks<\/strong> to serve food to the tables. If you have the outdoor space and a bunch of small greenhouses lying around, this might be a good solution for you.<\/p>\r\n<p>And while you might think this is just a gag, think again. The restaurant has <strong>already sold out of all the reservations<\/strong> it has put online. Apparently, people are clamoring to eat inside a greenhouse.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_5235\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5235\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5235\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wasserstrom.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/social-distancing4.jpg\" alt=\"Individual greenhouses provide total isolation.

The concept is fairly simple. Provide a barrier between customers that will keep them socially distant but also allow them to move around. Oh, and it would be great if there was a place for them to put their food and drinks.<\/p>\r\n<p>The solution? Bumper tables. Yep. These round tables are on wheels with a foam bumper all around the edge. Designed by <strong>Revolution Event Design &amp; Production<\/strong>, the bumper table is no joke. It&#8217;s a real product and is already in use. The first restaurant to employ these tables is <strong>Fish Tales<\/strong> in Ocean City, Maryland.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"powa-pane\">\r\n<div class=\"powa-ys\">\r\n<div class=\"powa-ys-window\">\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_5243\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5243\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5243\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wasserstrom.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/social-distancing2.jpg\" alt=\"Bumper tables are no joke.
