| | This style of service has become the go-to method of service during the lockdown, and it will remain a revenue steam to draw customers who still aren’t ready to dine in at your restaurants just yet. But drawing buzz and keeping customers happy with your curbside program isn’t as simple as putting food in to-go containers. In this session, hear from those who have mastered their curbside programs to make them as appetizing and service oriented as dine in…while being as convenient as safe as consumers demand today. |
