Capital to serve up late-night dining

Beijing will establish 10 areas for late-night dining by the end of 2021 to meet the growing needs of the public, authorities said on Wednesday.

Yan Ligang, head of Beijing's Commerce Bureau, said consumers are requiring a higher level of services, and upgrading the sector is essential to the capital's high-quality development.

Under the plan, authorities will encourage the dining industry to be greener and more regulated.
