【07:00】Excellent and good food chain snack bar has been established in Hong Kong for nearly 30 years. It has been very popular among independent travelers in recent years.

The spokesman said a "resurrection" could not be ruled out in the future.

Several surveys have also shown that Youzhiliangpin is one of the favorite brands of mainlanders. Its business reached its peak in 2003 when it began to promote mainland tourists to come to Hong Kong for independent travel. Postponing the graduation day a little.
As the saying goes, you can travel freely if you succeed, and you can travel freely if you fail. Youzhiliangpin relies too much on the business policy of mainland tourists, resulting in the loss of local tourists.
