How will restaurants handle Valentine's Day this year?

[Robin Garr]

Vaccines are coming, net positivity is gradually dropping in Kentucky, so the signs are good. How will local restaurants handle one of the biggest days of the year without prompting a spike in positive testing? Takeout feasts? Well heated outdoor spaces? Properly distanced, sanitized indoor seating? Or something else? Restaurant owners, workers, and fans are welcome to post info to this pinned thread.

We were at Brasserie Provence recently (twice) and they have done a good job of distancing and requiring masks.

Agree - Brasserie Provence have taken safety as seriously as any other restaurant I've seen.
