“Went to a new restaurant called ‘The Kitchen’. You have to make your own meal”

The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic resulted in many restaurants closing down. People had to cook for themselves.
 
The unusual experience was posted on Twitter by Jessie on March 21, 2020:
 
“Quarantine day 6: Went to this restaurant called The Kitchen. You have to gather all the ingredients and make your own meal. I have no clue how this place is still in business.”
     
“I went to a new restaurant called The Kitchen. You have to gather all the ingredients and make your own meal. I have no clue how this place is still in business!—“new” restaurant is added—was posted on Facebook by Marshall Dean Sowders on March 23, 2020.
