Chinese restaurant adjusts to outdoor dining in COVID-19 pandemic

The number of Chinese restaurants has reduced by around 20 percent since the COVID-19 pandemic hit New York City, said Chen, president of American Chinese Restaurant Alliance (New York).

"Now there are many old customers coming to eat, and I'm moved hearing the words 'Thank you for reopening!'" Chen told Xinhua. "I will do my best to adjust my strategy to outdoor dining."
