户外用餐对于旧金山地区的餐馆也起不了什么作用了！
SAN FRANCISCO (KPIX) — Popular Moroccan restaurant Aziza has begun outdoor dining just off Geary Boulevard in San Francisco’s Richmond District.
旧金山(KPIX)——受欢迎的摩洛哥餐厅Aziza在旧金山里士满区Geary大道附近的户外餐厅就餐。
It is meant to give the acclaimed restaurant a boost, one that eateries across the city desperately need.
此举是为了给这家广受好评的餐厅提振人气，而这正是全城各地的餐馆都迫切需要的。
“Everybody that I know in the industry — and I know a lot of people — nobody’s making money, everybody’s struggling, everybody’s scraping by and, basically, the amount of revenue that we’re making is just to keep the lights on,” said owner and chef Mourad Lahlou.
店主兼厨师莫拉德·拉卢说:“我认识这个行业的每个人，我认识很多人，没有人在赚钱，每个人都在挣扎，每个人都在勉强度日。基本上，我们挣的钱只是为了让灯一直亮着。”
New data from the Chamber of Commerce reflect that trend. San Francisco restaurant sales have dropped 91 percent since the pandemic began, based on credit card activity. About half of the city’s restaurants are closed, whether temporarily or permanently.
美国商会(Chamber of Commerce)的新数据反映了这一趋势。受信用卡活动影响，旧金山餐馆的销售额自疫情爆发以来下降了91%。该市约有一半的餐馆暂时或永久关闭。
“There is … talk among chefs and among restaurant owners that a lot of special places in San Francisco and in the Bay Area are going to be gone,” said Lahlou. “And it just is, like, this kind of sadness that hits me and it literally breaks my heart to see so many wonderful places, so much hard work, so much passion, so much talent that is just going to go away.”
拉卢说:“旧金山和湾区的很多餐厅老板和厨师都不做了。”“看到这么多美好的地方、这么多的努力都将消失，这种悲伤打击着我，真的让我心碎。”
Lahlou says his restaurant is one of the lucky ones but staying in business isn’t easy. Before the pandemic, a typical night would bring in up to $15,000. With take-out and outdoor dining, Aziza hopes to make a third of that.
拉卢说，他的餐馆是其中一个幸运的，但保持生意不容易。在疫情之前，一个典型的夜晚可以带来15,000美元的收入。通过外卖和户外餐饮，Aziza希望能达到这个数字的三分之一。
“The fish, the lamb, the food has been great, the parklet’s great,” said diner Tasha Magnani of San Francisco. “We thought it was going to be really cold out here but how they did the parklet is absolutely cozy and warm and you feel private and safe.”
来自旧金山的用餐者塔莎·马格纳尼(Tasha Magnani)说:“这里的鱼、羊肉和食物都很棒，公园也很棒。”“我们原以为这里会很冷，但他们在公园里做的绝对是舒适和温暖的，你会感到隐私和安全。”
Diner Aaron Tidman came out to support Lahlou.
用餐者Aaron Tidman站出来支持Lahlou。
“I know how hard the chefs work and, I mean, restaurants can’t survive on that reduced level of revenue with expenses being the same amount,” he said.
他说:“我知道厨师工作有多努力，我的意思是，餐馆无法在收入减少的情况下维持开支不变。”
Christopher Westcott says he wants to do his part to help his favorite restaurants survive.
克里斯托弗·韦斯科特说，他希望尽自己的一份力量帮助他最喜欢的餐馆生存下去。
“Everyone can support their communities and their neighborhoods in so many different ways and we’re all choosing to do different things,” said Westcott. “What better way than to come out and have dinner and a cocktail and do something for the community.”
韦斯科特说:“每个人都可以用很多不同的方式来支持自己的社区和社区，我们都选择做不同的事情。”“还有什么比出来吃顿饭、喝杯鸡尾酒、为社区做点事情更好的方式呢?”
The Chamber of Commerce says the Richmond and Mission Districts are faring better than others during the pandemic. SoMa and Financial District restaurants are hurting the most.
商会表示，里士满和教会地区在疫情期间的情况比其他地区要好。SoMa和金融区的餐馆受害最深。
