"Our restaurant used to be so popular that we offered more than 200 banquets a year. Banquets accounted for 60 percent of the turnover," Chen said. "The average yearly turnover of the restaurant before the outbreak was more than 8 million dollars. The turnover is only more than 1 million dollars until now this year."
In the meantime, his restaurant offered free lunch and dinner to frontline workers during the pandemic. "They are fighting the virus with their lives, we certainly should offer supporting service, providing them with warm and tasty dishes," Chen said. His restaurant has donated more than 6,000 free meals to frontline works up to now.
