The fresh guidelines for ‘break the chain’ will come into implementation from Monday across Maharashtra. If you plan to step out in Mumbai today, here’s a quick lowdown of what’s opening and what will remain shut in the financial capital.
All malls, theatres and multiplexes will continue to remain shut in Mumbai. But if you are missing dining out in your favourite restaurant, you may get lucky as dining facility is allowed with 50% capacity in all Mumbai restaurants till 4pm only on weekdays.
This means while you may plan breakfast, brunch and lunch at your favourite eatery, planning dinners in restaurants is still not allowed. Also, no dining out plans on weekends. But please remember, you can order from your favourite restaurants for home delivery at any time of the seven days.
