What's the difference between ancient teahouses and restaurants? Aren't they all eating?

In ancient times, there were great differences between teahouses and restaurants. Compared with restaurants, teahouses were smaller in scale, and the dishes in teahouses were relatively simple, mainly drinks, which were different after a long time. Besides being larger, teahouses contained more kinds of food, which could accommodate more passengers and hold more banquets. Therefore, such differences created teahouses. The restaurant can also serve some accommodation staff and some people who undertake banquets, such as weddings and birthdays, which can be held in the restaurant, but these things are too large for the teahouse to undertake. In fact, we can understand the difference between teahouses and restaurants from a contemporary perspective. Teahouses in ancient times are equivalent to some breakfast shops now, and their food is very simple, mainly cakes or fried steamed buns and so on. And drinks are usually some tea or some white wine. To put it bluntly, the teahouse is full of simple food, and the social objects he serves are relatively middle-level or relatively low, while the restaurant is different. Because of its large income scale, the restaurant gives people a grand momentum, and it feels taller after entering the restaurant, which is equivalent to some star-rated hotels in today's society.

There are differences not only in service, but also in scale, and even in the attitude of waiters. Such differences have created different clients. Generally, people who enter restaurants are dignitaries or celebrities, while those who enter teahouses are working people at the bottom of society. There is also a huge gap in consumption between teahouses and restaurants. Perhaps in restaurants, a bowl of food can be used as the food and all drinks in teahouses.

However, it is precisely because of the existence of teahouses and restaurants in ancient times that different Jianghu cultures have been created. Also, because of the existence of teahouses, more people can feel the commercial benefits, commercial benefits and commercial benefits. The promotion of teahouse culture is a spiritual and cultural heritage, and these teahouses can still have an important impact until today's society. A pot of tea tastes life!
