Stay safe and practise social distancing while enjoying the fine dining delights at these luxury hotel restaurants this month

With the easing of dine-in restrictions from August 20 onward in states under Phase 1 of the National Recovery Plan, more eateries in the Klang Valley are opening their doors to fully vaccinated diners. Guests need to display their digital vaccination certificates via the MySejahtera app in order to enter the restaurant. Fully vaccinated couples may also bring along their children aged 17 years old and below to dine in at restaurants, all while adhering to health SOPs.

Fully vaccinated individuals are those who have completed a minimum of 14 days after their second dose of the Pfizer, AstraZeneca, or Sinovac Covid-19 vaccines, while those who have waited at least 28 days after receiving the single-dose Covid-19 vaccines like Johnson & Johnson and CanSinoBio are considered fully vaccinated as well.

If you're fully vaccinated this month or fast on your way to getting there, congratulations! Plan that long overdue dinner out at the Klang Valley's most popular hotel restaurants, bars and cafes that have recently re-opened for dine-ins with the following opening hours.
