Tougher level 2 rules keep restaurants from reopening

From Checkpoint, 6:12 pm on 10 September 2021

Fleur Sullivan from renowned Moeraki restaurant Fleur's Place has chosen not to reopen until the South Island moves to alert level 1.

Tighter restrictions under Delta mean only 50 people can be seated inside and they must be socially distanced.

And for a small boutique restaurant like Fleur's it means reopening now is not worth it.
