The coronavirus pandemic has led to an increase in work from home facilities and self-quarantine practices. With malls, pubs, theatres, swimming pools and gyms closed in a few major cities, many of us are now working in the comfort of our homes and indulging in home-cooked food. But there are some who work from offices and can’t help but grab a bite from a restaurant. Well if you’re nodding your head in agreement, then let’s assure you that many restaurants in India are taking stringent measures to maintain hygiene amidst the coronavirus outbreak. In fact, we visited a McDonald’s outlet in Mumbai and were pleased to witness that the restaurant was being sanitized and its employees were screened.

Well, we decided to step into McDonald’s and have a look at this ourselves, and we were glad to see that the fast-food chain was taking stringent measures to heighten their sanitation. It was an atmosphere that exuberated hospitality and hygiene.
