Coronavirus: Amsterdam art centre uses greenhouses to offer outdoor eating amid COVID-19 pandemic | Euronews

One venue in Amsterdam thinks it might have found a solution.

Mediamatic Biotoop, an art centre in the Dutch city, is putting outdoor diners in tiny greenhouses in bid to adhere to social distancing guidelines.

The small greenhouses were built as an art project. But now they have been turned into private dining spaces.

Waiting staff wear protective equipment and serve food on long wooden planks. The greenhouses can hold a maximum of two people.

Willem Velthoven, director of the art centre, said the COVID-19 crisis had forced restaurants to "rethinking hospitality".

"Being together in large groups will probably be out of fashion for a while, but still, coming in a social situation and really enjoying things together is something that we long for even more," said Velthoven.
