This should be decided according to the policies issued by various places. If the epidemic situation is serious, it may be controlled together with take-away.

Starting from the catering industry as a whole, it is actually a very much needed part of the whole consumer market. As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people, but catering does not mean "food" itself. Catering industry is one of the ways of eating, and another more basic and essential food is our daily self-sufficient cooking diet at home. Then, during this epidemic, for fear of being infected by the virus, the public must stay away from the catering industry and be self-sufficient, which will definitely bring a serious blow to the consumption scale and revenue of the entire catering industry. Users' attention has almost changed from which restaurant to where to buy ingredients, how to buy ingredients and what kind of ingredients to buy. From the numerous paragraphs on the Internet, we can see that outstanding netizens have exercised a good cooking skill. As a result, the consumption structure and attention of the masses have changed fundamentally, and dining out has almost disappeared. Therefore, the dietary consumption habits cultivated by the masses during the epidemic period may continue. Combined with the penetration of products and services that provide home dining solutions such as JD.COM's arrival at home, box horse fresh food, pot ring, and Meituan's grocery shopping, the forms of self-purchase and self-cooking have increased, which will inevitably replace the demand for dining out in a branch, and may even become the new normal of dietary consumption for many consumers, thus leading to the overall consumption of the catering industry.

analysis from the supply side of the catering industry: many supply chains in the catering industry may be cut off. As the last link of the terminal of the catering industry, the daily operation and supply of restaurants must depend on the upstream food supply chain of the catering industry. Once there is a problem in the upstream food supply chain, it means that the supply is insufficient or broken, then a certain catering industry type will be hit hard. For example, the whole supply industry chain related to game will be uprooted, which may lead to the direct disappearance of this kind of catering industry. Other supply chains are bound to be damaged because there is no demand, and some supply nodes are even abandoned or even closed directly because of capital flow and cost problems, and the original supply chain with high efficiency and busy operation will stop. From the analysis of catering enterprises themselves, the danger brought by the epidemic is more direct and obvious. First of all, the demand for people to go out for food and beverage consumption has declined, and the pressure of decoration, rent, labor and other costs will inevitably lead to a sharp drop in the turnover and losses of food and beverage outlets, and the risk of bankruptcy may even occur for those with weak anti-risk ability. At the same time, with the decrease of consumption frequency and the shift of consumers' attention, consumers' perception of restaurant brands has declined. To put it bluntly, consumers may not remember you. After the epidemic, additional advertising and marketing operations will inevitably lead to increased marketing and operating costs. The category of food and beverage outlets will also become the crisis of a large part of food and beverage outlets. For example, the food and beverage outlets that mainly focus on Hubei cuisine will be affected, and consumers in other regions will reduce the frequency of choosing Hubei cuisine restaurants except Hubei locals; Secondly, some kinds of sashimi eaten raw will also be greatly affected, because consumers usually know that raw and frozen foods are more likely to contain bacteria and viruses. Food safety risk is also a major worry for food and beverage outlets. After the epidemic, food safety will become a hot spot of concern for the government and consumers. Food and beverage outlets that are unable to control the supply of high-quality food raw materials in the industrial chain, the traceability of food sources and the hygiene and high-quality control in daily operations are bound to bear the brunt. The risk of artificial safety is also an essential problem for restaurants in the epidemic stage. The operation of food and beverage outlets can not be separated from labor, and food and beverage outlets need to be responsible for the safety of labor. In the face of uncertain arrangements for returning to work, once the food and beverage outlets have problems, the consequences will be unimaginable. Therefore, it has invisibly caused another big burden to food and beverage outlets.

Analysis from the demand side of catering industry: Due to the epidemic situation, some consumers' catering consumption concepts have changed, and the older generation's catering consumption concept of "unhealthy and unsafe eating outside" will regain its glory and return to the orthodox catering consumption concept. Ideas guide actions. When consumers choose to eat at home more frequently, it will inevitably lead to a decline in the revenue scale of the catering industry. This is a zero-sum game brought about by the epidemic, and the catering industry as a whole may not escape the risk of the epidemic. Even after the epidemic, if there is no catering consumption driven by strong social attributes, the frequency of family and even friends gathering at home will increase. After all, after the baptism of the epidemic, psychological perception will feel safer to cook at home.

In fact, danger and opportunity usually coexist and combine into one word, which is called "crisis", with "danger" first and then "opportunity". For the catering industry, there are a lot of development opportunities under the background of reshuffle brought by epidemic risk.
