In ancient times, China was a thorough farming society. Every family is self-sufficient in farming and weaving, and few people go to Jianghu to do business. In order to fill their stomachs, they chose a restaurant besides bringing their own dry food. Such an idea is that restaurants provide paid services for marginal people, and their social status is relatively low, so there is a saying of eating out.

Later, the field of commodity circulation gradually became active, and the social status of restaurant owners increased with the bulging of wallets. But people have made it easy to eat out, and they have survived tenaciously.
