Police also closed two restaurants over the weekend. One of these was a unit called the Downtown Center, where guests were greeted with a takeout option. The act was followed by retaliation: the site was closed for 60 days and a fine of half a million was imposed on the operator. According to the official statement, the company was fined by the authorities for selling alcohol in the store, which is prohibited by epidemiological regulations. And because there were too many people inside at the same time. Following news of the takeout opening, a large crowd gathered in front of the pub in Elizabeth. According to the Center, they followed all the rules.
We decided to open it, like hundreds of other places besides ourselves, because we are already fighting to stay alive, said the head of the company.
Regular guests of the Center dumped the fine money on Monday.
The owners of the place claim that they served customers only for personal pick-up and take-out.
The owner of a restaurant in Nagykanizsa announced last Wednesday that he would open the Resti pub on February 1 because he had no income for months and had not received any support from the government. The Hungarian Association of the Restoration Industry (MVI) warns its members not to join the initiative.
THE COLLEGE OF COLLEAGUES IS UNDERSTANDABLE: THE CURRENT SUBSIDIES SORRY ARE NOT ENOUGH TO KEEP JOBS AND CATERING UNITS. THE OWNERS HAVE EXHAUSTED OF THEIR RESERVATIONS, THERE ARE SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE PAYMENT OF SALARY SUBSIDIES.
We know from MVI that they are constantly negotiating with decision makers so that caterers can get the lifeline promised in November by the government.
National opening 2.0
Who adds to the initial rush and which one is controversial. The Facebook event, which requires a nationwide opening, was recently removed from the social site and then the rally was almost re-advertised under almost the same name, but is no longer being staged not only by dissatisfied vendors but also by others. Private individuals and an unknown party are also calling people on the street to the same place at the same time. Sure, sure, the same move has been announced for at least four so far because the previous event was canceled by Facebook on Sunday under pressure from users.
István Ujhelyi, Vice-Chairman of the European Parliament’s Tourism Commission, collected examples from the EU of how restaurant facilities have been introduced in other Member States:
there are places where hospitality only works on an open terrace, while in other places, with restrictions, but it is also possible indoors.
According to the socialist politician
The government needs to carry out in-depth consultations with professional organizations as soon as possible, because certainly there are restaurants and restaurants that, with strict restrictions, a radical reduction in the number of tables, a limitation of personnel and therefore a substantial loss of income, would lead to open.
Ujhelyi added: Those without income should receive financial help from the government.
The Facebook group, which advocates mass opening, said that 133 restaurants as of Monday afternoon had indicated they would be open on February 1, despite the restrictions.
The wave of unlocking began on January 13 in Poland, called OtwieraMY. A few days later, Italian caterers also joined the wave sweeping Europe, and Hungarians don’t want to miss out either.
Police had to be deployed in ten cities.
No one dared to admit the opening on February 1 except the owner of the restaurant in Nagykanizsa. We do not know the names of specific restaurants, only the number of planners of the opening can be known at the moment.
According to psychiatrist Imre Csernus, the owner of the restaurant and cafeteria, the profession of hospitality has become enough because many people are running out of reservations as they see people standing in crowded lines at shopping malls. Chernus told the Index:
The contradiction arises as to why when the stores are incredibly crowded around 6 o’clock, why can’t the catering companies work? this is a serious dilemma, so after a while don’t be surprised if the glass is full.
They bear the consequences of arbitrary opening, the forced rupture dragged them to the edge of the abyss.
