A lunch date with Audrey Hepburn

Brooklyn's Peter Luger Steak House is giving patrons the chance to share a table with wax figures of celebrities.

The New York restaurant, which has been in business for over 130 years, has partnered with Madame Tussauds to have celebrity wax figures fill empty seats as it reopens at 35 per cent capacity.

Figures on loan from the wax museum include Audrey Hepburn, Jimmy Fallon, Michael Strahan and Al Roker.
