Reservation for New Year’s Eve dinner is "hard to find a table"
"Can I still book the New Year’s Eve box?" Recently, Ms. Shen came to this seafood-themed restaurant in Gangxia District, Futian, Shenzhen to make a reservation. After the waiter inquired, he said that the dinner on New Year’s Eve, 112 storefronts and 30 independent private rooms were all fully booked.
Yang Xiao, general manager of a seafood theme restaurant in Shenzhen, told the reporter, "The New Year’s Eve, the first day of the first month and the second day of the first month are the peak days for eating. In addition to Shenzhen locals, there are also many tourists from Hong Kong and other provinces who booked this year, which is almost twice as many as last year."
