We are taking small steps but talking specifically about Miami Beach it seems that there was a good response from the local market: many people who, after several months of lockdown, wanted to go outside and enjoy the good weather…”-MARVIN TORRES, EMPLOYEE AT RESTAURANT ON OCEAN 7 CAFÉ:“As an employee of this restaurant I’m glad because we have reopened, we are working... The only downsides have been the rain, the protests...and only a few customers come but we are doing it little by little, tourism will grow and, when beaches reopen, we’ll probably be better."
