GEORGE TOWN: While many food operators remain cautious about receiving diners again in view of the high number of daily Covid-19 cases, the ones that have done so are seeing few patrons.One such outlet is a Korean barbecue restaurant run by Lim Kuan Ee, 34, who said they recorded a low turnout since reopening for dine-ins on Aug 10.

“There have been only about 20 people since we welcomed diners again in the past week,” he added.
