The Overview

Giving Paper Menus Center Stage

Description

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit the restaurant industry, restaurants across the US underwent sudden and sweeping transformations, many becoming takeout-only establishments almost overnight. As restaurants reopen, it’s important for them to show dedication to sanitary practices and safety protocols like reduced occupancy, contactless payments and single-use, recyclable paper menus.
