The Hong Kong Winter Food Festival kicked off in Wan Chai today (24th). Many families of the public attended the event to "sweep the goods."
At the venue this morning, a large number of people brought shopping carts. Among them, the stall selling seafood was the most popular, and some were even more crowded.
Some members of the public spent about 2,000 yuan on abalone and other foods, and said with a smile that the third phase of the Octopus coupon is also more "good".
However, food and beverages are not allowed in the exhibition, and there are only a handful of cooked food stalls. Some members of the public confessed that they were disappointed.
In the winter food festival this morning, the overall flow of people is not too high, but some stalls, including seafood, are obviously crowded, and there are even crowds of stalls.
Mrs. Zeng took two children to the food festival shopping together. She said that she budgeted about 2,000 yuan to buy snacks and seafood.
She uses an Octopus to receive coupons, so she recently received 1,000 yuan. She said with a smile that she would be more "sweet" when shopping: "If you have a stall and have an Octopus, you will be happy. It's all useful."
Zeng Tai also went to food festivals in previous years, but thought that the flow of people this year was less than in previous years.
Regarding the inability to try food during the food festival, she bluntly said, "I am not happy, the atmosphere is not good, and I have to buy and go out to eat, but there is no good food."
The son of Mrs. Zeng, who is in the sixth grade, said that he bought abalone and sweets he likes to eat during the food festival.

Citizen Mr. Lin pointed out that in the past years there were "sweeping the streets" at food festivals, but there were very few cooked food stalls this year. I’m disappointed, not what I want to say."
He ended up buying dim sum and other cooked food for about 100 yuan, but since eating and drinking were strictly prohibited in the venue, he had to take it out of the exhibition and confessed that "the atmosphere is better than before."
Another citizen present, Mr. Liang, bought soup dumplings, etc., which cost about 1,000 yuan, which was similar to the budget.
He said that because he knew that there would be no food tasting at the scene and that there was a lot of cooking at home during the epidemic, he had planned to go there a long time ago to buy "home-cooked food."
He also said with a smile that since it was not an Octopus to receive the coupons, shopping today is "not a matter of coupons at all, let it be posted early in the morning."
