A Kelowna restaurant is getting creative in order to keep people safe as they dine out.
Curious Artistry and Alchemy Caf茅 has put a cap on how many people they can have inside the restaurant, ensuring physical distancing is happening by using giant teddy bears to mark spaces where people shouldn91裸聊视频檛 sit.
And while teddy bears are a unique way to social distance, the caf茅 also launched a new way of dining for their customers: the bubble experience.
Curious Caf茅 has a small patio area, where owner Luigi Coccaro decided to install a plastic bubble, that could be used by those who have been in the same social circle to dine together safely: from COVID-19 and from the weather.
Bar manager Ryan Chodola said Coccaro really wanted to be innovative when it came to keeping customers safe while still maintaining the caf茅91裸聊视频檚 atmosphere.

The new bubble intrigued so many residents that less than a week after it was installed, it91裸聊视频檚 already booked up until mid-November.

As for other Kelowna restaurants offering a similar experience, Chodola said they aren91裸聊视频檛 aware of others doing literal bubbles like theirs in the area, though he did mention a South Okanagan coffee shop that also had plastic domes.
Chodola said he91裸聊视频檚 not sure what91裸聊视频檚 in store in terms of safe dining experience for Coccaro91裸聊视频檚 other restaurants La Bussola and Gather, but he said he91裸聊视频檚 sure it91裸聊视频檒l be just as unique as the bubble at Curious.
