Last week, 100 restaurants across Shanghai supported the use of serving utensils (器具),as it is a key point for the control and (prevent) of the COVID-19.
Chinese people often eat together and share their dishes others. The new system suggests adding separate chopsticks and spoons for (serve) when people dine together. Such a change of etiquette (礼仪)allows diners (avoid) using their own chopsticks to pick food from the plates and therefore (great) reduces the chances of spread of many diseases.
Many restaurants (adopt) the policy after the Municipal Office for Civilized Society published the suggestion, also encourages the public to use separate utensils for shared food at home.
According to Qu Qi, a person in charge of a restaurant in Xuhui district, a sign (put) up on the tables to inform people of the importance of using serving utensils since the start of business on February 21. The waiters and waitresses are also trained to supply a separate spoon or pair of chopsticks for the liners. So far, service has been well accepted by the majority of the public.
This will be a long term measure. In the future, each diner on the table will have (they) own serving chopsticks and spoons so as to prevent sharing of any manner of viruses and bacteria.
