Today, during this stressful and challenging coronavirus crisis, we got some great news about restaurants here in Washington State (and specifically here in Woodinville). Governor Jay Inslee lifted some restrictions on restaurants at this time, and I am so relieved and delighted to hear this news!
Phase 2 restaurants can now seat 6 people per table (previously 5) and now can seat people from different households indoors at restaurants. Fabulous news – I want to take my brother and nephews out to dinner indoors soon on a rainy day!
King 5 News writes:
The restriction that prohibited people from dining at restaurants indoors with people outside their household has been removed, which Inslee said he hopes boosts business. Alcohol service is extended from 10 p.m. until 11 p.m., and table sizes are increased to six people for counties in Phase 2 and eight people for counties in Phase 3.

We still have to carefully wear masks inside restaurants when not eating and drinking, but now we can again invite friends and family members out to dinner at indoor restaurants!
