Reply to comment by ADustedEwok in NYC restaurant owners in limbo as City Council stalls on permanent outdoor dining by psychothumbs

Are you like not familiar with the concept of eating outside or something? How sterile do you think picnic tables are?

I don’t eat outside at places but if it’s an option I’d prefer just sidewalk seating for those who want that option

The most parklet heavy areas are dining-heavy areas where sidewalk dining isn't an option. The sidewalks on mulberry for instance are already too small.

They really should remove the parking (or close the street entirely) and extend the sidewalk. Piecemeal parking space removal is a compromise.

Yeah but when I go for a picnic, I bring a plastic table cloth and disinfect. Can't do that at a restaurant.
