The government announced today (6th) that citizens must use "Travel with peace of mind" for dine-in in any restaurant this Thursday (9th). The restaurant (limited to 2 people per table and no dinner dinning) will no longer be used. Category B is only allowed to use "Travel with peace of mind", but it will be extended by one hour to 10:59 pm.
At present, many Type B restaurants still enter dine-in by "paper-filling". The owner of a Type B restaurant in Tsuen Wan, A Zheng, said that it is expected that the business will drop by 40% in the first week after the full use of peace of mind. "There are always customers who have a kind of perseverance and will understand, but they will always be ready to order customers to switch to takeaway, and may offer takeaway discounts to respond."
A Zheng, the owner of "He Shun Kee", said that he believes that the new dinning regulations will make diners feel resistant, and will launch takeaway discounts first.

Tsuen Wan "Woo Shun Kee" intends to offer takeaway discounts to retain customers
According to the latest arrangement, with the exception of the elderly, people aged 15 or below, people with disabilities, and "homeless", diners entering restaurants need to use their mobile phones to scan the QR code of the "Travel at ease" place, and they cannot fill in paper for registration. .
A Zheng, the owner of Tsuen Wan "He Shun Kee", said that he believes that the new dinning regulations will make diners feel resistant. In order to keep the guests, they will first introduce takeaway discounts. For food takeaways, there may be a 10% discount or a 20% discount for takeaways."
The restaurant’s current take-out and dine-in ratio is 2 for every 10 customers, but I believe it will change from Thursday. "I have more than half of the customers who are "writing paper". I already expect fewer people to eat. Takeaway customers At that time, it may be a three-to-seven ratio, a four-six ratio, and the points have changed." Zheng also believes that the more difficult to adapt are believed to be older customers. "Most of them will find it difficult to operate, right? (Vcode) If you don’t use it again, you’ll be "irritable", but it’s really helpless.” He plans to discuss with the staff to change the restaurant to C meal to facilitate the extension of business hours on Fridays and weekends. Unlike Type B, the staff must have At least one dose of vaccine, but each diners can be as many as 6 people.
The government will not change the current penalties. If the diners do not use the QR code and are found by law enforcement officers, the restaurant may be fined or the evening market suspended. Zheng seems helpless. Code, many restaurant managers may not have to check whether they have done it one by one in the same branch, but they have no choice but to be punished. In fact, it is really for epidemic prevention. It is necessary to persuade and encourage the same. Separate the itinerary layout from the "fake app" to prevent both parties from being punished. "The food ring is checked every day!"
In addition, in the new regulations, the elderly, persons aged 15 or below, persons with disabilities, and "homeless", etc., are exempted from using the "Travel with Peace" mobile application on their mobile phones.
When asked how to distinguish the customers concerned, Ah Zheng said: "If you really want to do this and offer discounts for the elderly and students to attract customers, some people may be willing to be verified by ID checks, which will make everyone feel at ease. But in fact, there can only be mutual trust. I don't have the right to ask people to bring their ID cards out!"
Category A restaurants will automatically change to Category B dine-in food and postpone it until 11pm
