As restaurants have re-opened their doors for indoor dining from today for fully vaccinated people, Wishbone and Pizza King restaurants are operating on about 95 percent staff.

General Manager, Jabeen Kamlesh says some of the staff have returned to their villages and they have contacted them to resume work.

She says all the staff are working on reduced hours due to the curfew restrictions but their rates have not been reduced.

She adds customers are not coming in large numbers as they used to before COVID-19 but business is slowly picking up.

The restaurant had been closed for indoor dining since April this year due to COVID-19.

Kamlesh says one of the challenges they are facing are that some customers are reluctant to present their vaccination cards however, some customers are very cooperative.
