A cafe owner in Tel Aviv was fined NIS 5,000 after running a short-term delivery service to circumvent the "take away" ban.

Seven policemen and three vehicles arrived today at the "Nisso in Jaffa" cafe, which is closed for deliveries only within the framework of the Corona restrictions.

The cafe's owner, Yoni Salomon, was also fined a similar amount on Saturday, after allowing seating on the premises, in violation of regulations.



Short-term delivery service (SMC) is an idea adopted by some businesses to circumvent the "take away" ban. Thus, the couriers deliver the products to customers waiting further down the street, without entering the business. The Israel Police said today that "the idea Of the delivery of the shipment near or outside the business and not at the customer's home is contrary to the regulations. "

"We work in the form of deliveries starting Sunday at noon," Salomon said. "On Saturday, the police ordered us to put the chairs and tables inside, and gave us a report for 5,000 shekels. "We cross the road and give it to them. We have public benches on the sidewalk that is closed to vehicular traffic."



He said, "The police arrived here today with seven policemen and three vehicles after inspectors from the Tel Aviv municipality photographed the place and sent it to them. They claimed that the place should be empty and that people should not work here, and anyone who wants must order through a courier. "Otherwise. It's delusional, people can order falafel and can not order a sandwich from the counter. I take it out for him - what's the difference?"

He argued that in any case he could operate within this framework under the definition of a deli rather than a restaurant.

"I'm a deli, by law it's allowed, it's my job. For them, they do not recognize a short delivery service as a delivery. If I take a delivery to a person across the street is it not delivery? Should I bring it to the customer's house? It's absurd."



"I want to understand why a report is given without warning? Why not deliver the report by hand? Why do I have to wait to receive it in the mail," Salomon added.

"There is no reason to fine a business because it is creative"

Tomer Moore, CEO of the "Strong Restaurants Together" group, argued that imposing fines on business owners who operate a short-term delivery service is illegal. "Strong Restaurants Together will recommend that any restaurateur who receives a report goes to court against the invalid reports.

"The restaurants that Shamak maintains maintain the health of the employees and the public as required by the closure regulations and prevent crowds," he added.



Moore argued that the fine was particularly high in light of the circumstances.

"We would like to tell law enforcement that in order to generate NIS 5,000 profit the restaurant must work at least seven hard days and pray a lot," he said, "there is no reason to fine a business just for being creative as long as it meets the law and regulations."
