The New Year has passed, and the Chinese New Year flavor in supermarkets has not diminished at all, because the fifteenth day of the first lunar month has not yet arrived, and the Chinese New Year is not over yet. Many Chinese supermarkets in Los Angeles have started selling glutinous rice balls for the Lantern Festival.

Moreover, Chinese supermarkets throughout the Los Angeles area hope to seize this promotional opportunity, so Chinese people can buy delicious glutinous rice balls at their favorite supermarkets nearby.

Mr. Huang, who has been in the restaurant industry for many years, said that the economic downturn for many years has not stopped the Chinese people from spending during the Spring Festival. The restaurant business is very prosperous during the Spring Festival. On the one hand, there are banquets from various overseas Chinese groups, and on the other hand, people coming to Los Angeles to travel have kept the restaurant prosperous. Many large and medium-sized Chinese restaurant owners in the Los Angeles area also said that although it is still a transition period for economic recovery, many industries are happy to see improvements, and Chinese people are in high spirits during the New Year. Although there is no long holiday during the Chinese New Year in Los Angeles, everyone’s scheduled Spring Festival banquets span before and after the holiday. Restaurant operators expect that they will usher in a peak restaurant season throughout the Spring Festival.

In a Chinese restaurant on Valley Avenue, the dining room is fully booked every day, and the queue in the lobby reaches more than 100 people almost every day. During busy times, people have to wait an average of 30 minutes for a table. Mr. Zhang, who came to the Los Angeles area from Shanghai, China, to celebrate the New Year, said, "It's a good time to come to Los Angeles to celebrate the New Year. Not only are there delicious Chinese food, but they are also full of New Year's flavor. Everyone is lively together." (Weiyu)
