Leading restaurant group Tao Heung Holdings will suspend dinner services at all of its 48 Chinese restaurants for two weeks from Saturday as Hong Kong is set to launch tougher strategies to contain the coronavirus pandemic.

The listed firm announced its own containment initiatives after the food and beverage sector, including fast food chain McDonald’s and Cafe de Coral, rolled out measures to check the spread of Covid-19.

Outlets under Tao Heung’s brands such as Tao Heung, Pier 88, Hak Ka Hut, Chao Inn, and Chung’s Cuisine will end services at 4pm on March 28, until April 10.

“For everyone’s health and safety,” the group said on its Facebook page on Friday morning, “from today, our restaurants will not serve anyone under mandatory quarantine.”

The group has around 50 restaurants in the city.
