Food and beverage outlets at the Curve have reopened their doors to patrons for the first time in months as the shopping mall springs back to life following announcements on the Klang Valley moving into National Recovery Plan’s Phase Three on Oct 1.
Boustead Properties’ senior general manager of property management and investment Jazmi Kamarudin said with the easing of restrictions under the NRP, F&B outlets at the Street are now operating with close to 100% fully vaccinated staff to welcome dine-in customers.
“Our tenants are most excited to reopen fully and get back to serving the community. F&B tenants especially understand the value and importance of having fully vaccinated staff and are taking strict safety precautions. Even as we work towards fully reopening the mall in time to come, we will continue protecting lives and livelihoods responsibly as we get through this pandemic together,” he said.
The mall’s open-air lifestyle wing called The Street is lined with a variety of F&B outlets which are popular with people from all ages and walks of life.
After months of lockdown, the Street is abuzz with activity, with the outlets sweetening the dine-in experience with various offerings for customers who are eager to reconnect with family and friends at their favourite dining spots.
Jazmi said the Curve’s utmost priority is to ensure the safety of tenants, staff and customers with strict standard operating procedures (SOPs) maintained at the various entrance entry points.
He said all other retail outlets have reopened and the Curve will continue to observe the new SOPs, including dining-in only allowed for fully vaccinated customers.
Customers are required to show their digital vaccination certificate and a MySejahtera profile that is either Low Risk or Casual Contact with No Symptoms.
Children under the age of 17 are now allowed to enter the premises as long as both parents are fully vaccinated.
Jazmi also announced that parking at the mall will be more safe and convenient using Touch ‘n Go PayDirect.
With the PayDirect e-wallet feature, mall patrons entering the Curve carpark need not worry about having sufficient balance in their physical Touch ‘n Go card as parking fees will be automatically deducted from the e-Wallet balance when the card is used.
Those without the e-Wallet feature can still use their Touch ‘n Go card as long as the balance is RM10 and above.
“Now more than ever, contactless amenities will contribute towards maintaining a safe environment for the public. It made sense for us to introduce PayDirect which limits unnecessary contact and keeps the Curve abreast with changing technology in this increasingly digital era we are living in. Such digital features are also in line with Reinventing Boustead strategy which emphasizes the need to elevate our business through people-friendly technology innovation,” added Jazmi.
