(Hong Kong Comprehensive News) Liang Zhenhua, chairman of the Hong Kong Mealing Management Association, said that the industry is very satisfied with the reservation rate of the New Year of the Lunar New Year this year. It is estimated that the amount of Chinese food business has returned to about 95%before the epidemic.
Liang Zhenhua said in an interview with Hong Kong on Monday (February 12) that the industry's initial expectation of the Chinese food market during the Spring Festival may not be optimistic, but the recent reservation rate was unexpectedly satisfactory.At the beginning, only 70 % to 80 %. Recently, the booking has been full. The business amount returned to about 9 and a half before the epidemic of the 30th (February 9th) and the first day of the year.
According to the Hong Kong News Agency, during the Spring Festival this year, many restaurants in Hong Kong did not snooze, and long teams were lined up outside the meal. The business was very popular.There is a restaurant manager that the restaurant has ushered in the peak of passenger flow from New Year's Eve. Many customers book seats one day or even a few days in advance, especially dinner time.Latest lining in line for lunch has lasted for a long time.
Liang Zhenhua analyzed that the business exceeded the expected reasons. It may be because some Hong Kong people who originally planned to go to mainland China such as Shenzhen were worried about traffic such as transportation and other issues.Hong Kong's Chinese restaurants have per capita consumption at 250 to HK $ 500 (S $ 43 to S $ 86) at night, and customers are willing to consume here.
He also mentioned that due to the rise in wages and prices this year, the catering industry generally increased prices by 5%to 10%, resulting in the increase in the average consumption of customers.However, most catering operators did not charge 20%or 30%of service fees during the New Year, but charged a 10%service fee as usual.
