We’re talking gyoza, seafood, stew and more.
But do you know what’s the best part? They change their appetizer buffet menu on a monthly basis.

Back in Jun 2020, Lianhe Zaobao reported that as many as 529 eateries have closed down between February and April 2020.

He mentioned that in 2019, 560 restaurants closed down within the same time period.
