# Feastogether

Feastogether Corporation (Chinese: 饗賓餐旅事業股份有限公司) is a Taiwanese multi-brand restaurant operator headquartered in Taoyuan's Qingpu Special District. Chen Chaoquan (Chinese: 陳朝全) founded Fuli Sichuan Banquet (Chinese: 福宴館（福利川菜）), the predecessor to Feastogether, in 1971. His son, Chen Qichang (Chinese: 陳啟昌), took charge of the restaurant business in 1979. Fuli Sichuan Banquet's primary clientele was the wedding reception market, which owing to Taiwan's declining birthrate began facing challenges. In response, Chen shifted the business's focus to all-you-can-eat restaurants. In 2002, he founded Feastogether Corporation and the Eat Together (Chinese: 饗食天堂) buffet brand. Chen Qiqang's son, Chen Yihang (Chinese: 陳毅航), became the company's general manager in 2009 and introduced an enterprise resource planning system.
After creating the Eat Together buffet brand, Feastogether started several restaurant brands. It in 2011 created Kaifun Together (Chinese: 開飯川食堂), a Sichuan cuisine restaurant brand. In 2013, it started Fruitful Food (Chinese: 果然匯), a vegetarian and vegan buffet brand, and Siam More (Chinese: 饗泰多), a Thai restaurant brand. Feastogether founded Dacoz (Chinese: 大口吃), an American-style hamburger restaurant brand in 2016. The next year, it created the buffet brand Inparadise (Chinese: 饗饗) and Japanese-themed buffet brand Sunrise (Chinese: 旭集和食集錦). In 2020, it started Jin-Zhu (Chinese: 真珠台灣佳味), a Taiwanese-themed restaurant brand.
Feastogether established Little Fuli Spicy Hot Pot (Chinese: 小福利麻辣鍋), a hot pot buffet brand, in 2021. The next year, Feastogether founded Doricious (Chinese: 朵頤餐廳), a Western-themed semi-buffet brand. A Joy [zh] (Chinese: 饗A Joy) opened in 2023 and was Taiwan's highest-priced buffet when it opened. Zhiyun (Chinese: 旨醞), a teppanyaki restaurant that provides set menu offerings, opened in 2024. The company opened several hub kitchens to supply its restaurants and the iEat (Chinese: iEAT饗愛吃) app in 2019. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it launched Eatogo, an online food ordering and delivery platform, and Eat@home, an e-commerce platform that sells frozen meal kits with dishes from its restaurant brands.

## History

In 1971, Chen Chaoquan (Chinese: 陳朝全) established Fuli Sichuan Banquet (Chinese: 福宴館（福利川菜）), which later became Feastogether Corporation. His son, Chen Qichang (Chinese: 陳啟昌), assumed control over the restaurant business in 1979. The younger Chen started the Zhongzheng Branch (Chinese: 中正店) in 1993. In being able to hold 200 banquet tables, Fuli Sichuan Banquet's Zhonzheng Branch was Taiwan's largest Sichuan restaurant at its opening. It initially catered to people who were holding wedding banquets. The restaurant business was a good for a period, but sales in the volatile wedding banquet business began suffering as Taiwan experienced a declining birthrate. To stabilize the business, Chen changed the business model to be focused on all-you-can-eat restaurants. In 2001, Chen started Zhongli Welfare Sichuan Cuisine (Chinese: 中壢福利川菜) and Fuli Japanese Buffet (Chinese: 福利日式百匯). He founded the brand Xiang Japanese Buffet (Chinese: 饗日式百匯) in 2002 at the Taoyuan branch of Idee Department Store [zh], which later was owned by Shin Kong Mitsukoshi. In preparation for starting the Japanese buffet, he that year had accompanied Idee's general manager Wang Lingmei (Chinese: 王令楣) and her staff to Japan to learn from trendy restaurants there. Wang offered suggestions, which he implemented. Chen Qichang enlisted the interior designer Ray Chen [zh] to give the restaurant a stylish design. Ray Chen helped come up with the brand identity, the interior design, and employee uniforms. They jointly decided that the brand would be named Xiang (Chinese: 饗), meaning "banquet feast". Feastogether Corporation was established on 8 May 2002 and would later become a multi-brand chain restaurant operator.
Chen Yihang (Chinese: 陳毅航), the founder's grandson and Chen Qichang's son, graduated from National Taiwan University in 2006, joined the company that year to assist his father in the launching of a Neihu District restaurant, and became the company's general manager in May 2009. He and his older sister, Chen Hanjing (Chinese: 陳涵菁, are the third-generation leaders of the company. When the siblings were in their early 20s in 2006, they founded the buffet brand Eat Together (Chinese: 饗食天堂). The company's earlier brand, Xiang Japanese Buffet, was the original concept that led to the development of Eat Together. The restaurant generated NT$140 million (US$5,012,172) in revenue in its first year in operation. The United Daily News said the revenue achievement garnered significant respect from the restaurant's industry peers. Feastogether's later branches were named Eat Together. In his role as general manager, Chen Yihang initiated the general management office which consists of the departments of marketing, procurement, human resources, and engineering. Chen submitted a business proposal to a contest on the digitization of the restaurant industry run by Taiwan's Ministry of Economic Affairs. As part of his first-place finish in the competition, he got NT$1.4 million (US$50,122) in funding. Chen used the funding to deploy an enterprise resource planning system, educating all chefs on using computers to place orders and restock ingredients. Another change Chen made was on the company's equity which had been dispersed among about 30 shareholders. He convinced his father and the shareholders in 2008 to support consolidating the equity and allowing company executives to purchase shares.
The company in 2010 reached NT$800 million (US$28,640,985) in sales of which NT$75 million (US$2,685,092) was profit. The Ministry of Economic Affairs gave Feastogether the Contribution to Job Creation Award (Chinese: 創造就業貢獻獎) in 2011. By 2012, the company operated eight Eat Together branches that had an annual revenue of NT$1.2 billion (US$42,961,478). The United Daily News business journalist Chen Jingyi said that while the Taiwanese buffet chain Jogoya [zh] had begun closing its branches, Eat Together successfully captured the buffet market during this period. On Chinese New Year in 2012, the brand set a company record with a single location having almost 1,000 customers.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic in Taiwan, Feastogether had five buffet brands. Every year, 4.5 million people ate at the company's buffets. By 2020, Feastogether had 2,500 employees and 40 locations from its seven brands, making a yearly revenue of NT$3.5 billion (US$125,304,310). During the pandemic, Feastogether did not cut employees' wages or make employees go on unpaid leave. Chen Qichang, the company's chairman, said that as numerous workers came from underprivileged backgrounds, he wanted the company to be supportive of them. In the midst of the pandemic, Taiwanese president Tsai Ing-wen visited Feastogether, where she urged businesses to hold firm on not lowering salaries and to avoid unpaid leave despite the challenging circumstances. The company lost almost NT$500 million (US$17,900,616) between May and August 2021 when the government disallowed restaurants' customers from eating indoors. The October 2021 revenue recovered to NT$410 million (US$14,678,505), which matched the monthly revenue the company had before the pandemic. The recovery was in part due to the Quintuple Stimulus Vouchers [zh] issued by the government. When COVID-19 restrictions were eased in the latter half of 2022, Feastogether added 14 new outlets that year. At the end of 2022, the company had 64 restaurants and had earned NT$5.6 billion (US$200,486,897) in annual revenue. Yao Shun of Commercial Times in 2023 called Feastogether the "dominant player in large chain buffet restaurants".
Feastogether started their sixth buffet brand, A Joy [zh] (Chinese: 饗A Joy), in 2023. That year, the company had started 18 restaurants and earned NT$8.5 billion (US$304,310,468) in revenue. It started its 11th brand, the teppanyaki-themed Zhiyun (Chinese: 旨醞), in 2024. In May 2024, the company owned 83 restaurants in Taiwan, operating 11 restaurant brands. That month, it had 30 branches of Kaifun Together (Chinese: 開飯川食堂), 15 branches of the Thai-themed restaurant Siam More (Chinese: 饗泰多), 11 branches of the buffet Eat Together (Chinese: 饗食天堂), eight branches of the Taiwanese-themed restaurant Jin-Zhu (Chinese: 真珠台灣佳味), five branches of the vegetarian buffet Fruitful Food (Chinese: 果然匯), five branches of the Japanese-themed buffet Sunrise (Chinese: 旭集和食集錦), four branches of Little Fuli Spicy Hot Pot (Chinese: 小福利麻辣鍋), two branches of the high-end buffet Inparadise (Chinese: 饗饗), one branch of the upscale buffet A Joy (Chinese: 饗A Joy), one branch of Doricious (Chinese: 朵頤餐廳), and one branch of the teppanyaki restaurant Zhiyun (Chinese: 旨醞). The company also operates Eat@home (Chinese: 饗在家), an e-commerce platform, and Eatogo (Chinese: 饗帶走), an online food ordering and delivery service. Feastogether plans to establish a presence in the United States and Japanese markets in 2026 by opening Kaifun Together and Jin-Zhu branches and to do an initial public offering that year.
The Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) in 2024 included Feastogether as among the five firms most prone to be targeted by scammers. There were 59 documented instances of fraud in the first three months of the year involving scammers posing as Feast Together employees. The CIB said that hackers were believed to have retrieved customer information from hacking into the company's systems, told customers a mistake had been made when entering the customers' information, and posed as a bank teller to convince customers to hand over their bank account details under the guise of making a payment.

## Operations

Feastogether invested NT$100 million (US$3,580,123) into building a hub kitchen. Its purpose is to decrease the time and labor that its restaurants have to spend on preparing food. Spanning over 3,200 ping (11,000 m$^2$; 110,000 sq ft), the kitchen is in Taoyuan's Qingpu Special District, where Feastogether is based. The kitchen has four principal divisions: food production, operations management, property management, and pastries production. Feastogether has a group that visits farmers to buy fruits and vegetables from them directly. One reason is to allow the company to monitor the producers' farmer practices such as how pesticides are used, planting practices, and quality management. Another reason is to cut out resellers who would have taken a cut of the profit. At the hub kitchen, the group's members then sort and store the items. The company preprocesses the raw ingredients and processes the intermediate goods. Food prepared at the kitchen includes fruits, vegetables, fully cooked dishes, Hong Kong-inspired dim sum, Western-style pastries, ice cream, and other desserts. After being prepared, the food is supplied to the company's restaurants. Feastogether does not outsource food production to other companies as every dish is made internally. The company became certified in the 2018 edition of ISO 22000, a food safety management system.
For constructing another hub kitchen, Feastogether acquired land close to its headquarters. It opened at the beginning of 2020. The hub kitchen stores both ingredients that need to be frozen and ingredients that can be stored at room temperature. Its purpose is to allow a greater selection of offerings since the company purchases seasonal food and freezes it in the kitchen. By 2020, Feastogether had purchased 15,000 ping (50,000 m$^2$; 530,000 sq ft) of land at Machouhou Industrial Park [zh] in the Lucao township of Chiayi County. Named the Feastogether Green Market (Chinese: 饗青市集), the facility was planned to span tens of thousands of ping and would be for preprocessing agricultural, fishery, and livestock products sourced from Chiayi, Tainan, and Yunlin. The facility was aimed to supply both Feastogether's and other companies' restaurants. It is modeled after the Italian food marketplace Eataly. According to Chen Yihang, Feastogether's general manager, the company wants to create an "Eataiwan" where consumers can eat food, purchase ingredients, and take classes at a cooking school. Feastogether plans to spend almost NT$5 billion (US$179,006,158) on developing the project's three construction phases. The company spent NT$800 million (US$28,640,985) to construct the Chiayi Ingredients Center (Chinese: 嘉義食材中心) which had a floor area of 3,000 ping (9,900 m$^2$; 110,000 sq ft). Construction began on 13 July 2022. Cheng Wen-tsan, the mayor of Taoyuan, and Weng Chang-liang, the Chiayi County Magistrate, attended the groundbreaking.
Feastogether formed an in-house logistics fleet that can deliver food at various temperatures, namely regular, refrigerated, and frozen. It has 14 delivery trucks that collectively weigh over 90 tonnes (90,000 kg; 200,000 lb). It delivers food daily to restaurants north of Taichung. Restaurants south of the city receive deliveries every two days.

## Reservations

Feastogether's restaurants allow customers to make online reservations. The restaurants permit reservations for a period that extends up to one month ahead. In 2023, the time at which online reservations opened was revised from midnight to 9:00 am so that customers could book reservations without having to be remain awake at night. For three of its brands—Inparadise, Sunrise, and A Joy—Feastogether requires customers to pay a deposit within a specified time period before the reservation is finalized. Feastogether began using Chunghwa Telecom's AI voice assistant in 2024 to respond to customer phone calls. Using generative AI, the voice assistant takes into account local festivals and what the caller needs. The company adopted the technology with the aim of speeding up responses to customers since they lose business when their phone lines are tied up.

## Restaurant brands

Chen Yihang (Chinese: 陳毅航), the company's general manager, viewed the brands as serving different audiences. He said in 2024 that people attending a college reunion would select the buffet brand Eat Together, people going on a date would select Inparadise, and businesspeople would select A Joy. For the teppanyaki restaurant brand Zhiyun, office professionals aged 30 and above make up the primary target market.

### Fuli Sichuan Banquet

Fuli Sichuan Banquet (Chinese: 福宴館（福利川菜）), Feastogether's founding brand, was founded in 1971 by Chen Chaoquan (Chinese: 陳朝全). It originally operated as a staff cafeteria for workers of the Taoyuan Farmland Water Conservancy Association (Chinese: 桃園農田水利會). In 1977, Chen hired the Sichuan cuisine expert Zhang Jinquan (Chinese: 張金全) as the head chef. Fuli adopted a large-scale Sichuan restaurant operational model and began serving Sichuan food. Fuli added two more branches: Zhongzheng Branch (Chinese: 中正店) and Zhongli Store (Chinese: 中壢店).
Eden Yiping Lin of Yahoo! News in 2019 attributed Fuli's success on fresh ingredients, tastiness, and budget-friendly prices and Sichuan cuisine's spicy and aromatic flavors. Lin said that Fuli preserved the original taste of Sichuan cuisine through using Sichuan peppers like rattan pepper and er jing tiao. Traditional Sichuan dishes the restaurant served in 2019 included carp cooked with fermented chili bean paste and eggplant seasoned with fish fragrance. Other dishes the restaurant served that year were scallion pancakes, chicken soup made in a clay pot, salty baked chicken, shrimp meatballs, and Geleshan-style spicy chicken and spicy pork. The restaurant created additional spicy Sichuan dishes. One dish was named "Tender Grass for Grazing Cows" (Chinese: 放牛吃嫩草), which is made from Australian beef belly, shredded cabbage flavored with Sichuan peppercorns, the tea Da Hong Pao, the pepper er jing tiao, chili powder, and black vinegar. A second dish the restaurant created was named "Sichuan Spicy Chicken" (Chinese: 川味口水雞). Diners can choose from both à la carte and set meals offerings. When diners have spent above a minimum threshold, they are given access to a buffet of fruit, salad, beverages including draft beer, and desserts including Häagen-Dazs ice cream.

### Eat Together

Established in 2002, the Eat Together (Chinese: 饗食天堂) buffet brand later became Feastogether's foray into the Greater Taipei Area. The first branch was established in the Zhongli District of Taoyuan. According to the author Shen Qinyu, families and friends frequented the buffet for get-togethers. After its founding, Eat Together expanded its offerings to have Sichuan cuisine, Taiwanese cuisine, Thai cuisine, and vegetarian cuisine. The buffet served over 200 dishes in 2012. Eat Together's branch at the Qsquare Taipei Main Station occupied 300 ping (990 m$^2$; 11,000 sq ft) of space and made NT$200 million (US$7,160,246) in revenue in 2010, making it the station's highest revenue restaurant out of the 13 there.
Taoyuan County gave Eat Together's Zhongli branch a golden award for "14 Best Exotic Cuisine Restaurants" in 2012. Taoyuan City gave the brand the "Smart Star Award" (Chinese: 智多星獎) and "Gender Equality Award" (Chinese: 性平獎) in 2019. 23 of Eat Together's customers had food poisoning in May and June 2012 owing to their serving of oysters contaminated with norovirus. For affected customers, the company offered coverage of medical expenses, free meals, and financial compensation of NT$1,000 (US$36). In the following, three months, the company's revenue fell by 20% to 25% owing to the incident.
Enru Lin of the Taipei Times reviewed the Eat Together branch located at Qsquare in the Datong District of Taipei in 2013. With capacity for 352 people, the restaurant was fully booked and had a 60-minute wait for walk-ins when Lin visited on the weekend. She penned a mostly positive review about the restaurant's food, comparing it the dishes served at restaurants that cater to business customers. Lin called the sirloin steak "juicy and blessedly fatty", finding it was complemented nicely by the pineapple soaked in milk that was served next to it. She found the tempura prawns to be "fresh, long and luxuriously battered", while the roast pork knuckle's tough exterior yielded to a "buttery tenderness". Lin gave a mixed review of some dishes that she said were elegantly organized in small cups. Whereas she thought the scallop seasoned with miso wasabi sauce and leaf vegetables was delicious, she called the mayonnaise- and herb flavored bacon cake "strange". Lin said that although the bacon cake dish had a rice cake's texture, it was difficult to bite into owing to "a powerful fleshy flavor". She found the dining experience to be slightly expensive. Lin criticized the noise in the restaurant emanating from the customers and the open kitchen, writing that discussions likely would "never get romantic, or even very friendly: You must lean in, and sometimes shout."
Eat Together enlisted the rock band Accusefive as spokespeople for the brand in 2021. That year, the company renovated 10 locations. Compared to pre-pandemic figures, revenue at each Eat Together branch by 2023 had grown by between 5% and 10%. Eat Together opened its 11th location on 25 September 2023 at Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport Taichung in Taichung. Located on the shopping mall's third floor, it was the brand's first restaurant opening in Central Taiwan in 12 years and its largest in Central Taiwan. With seats for 376 people, the branch occupied 414 ping (1,370 m$^2$; 14,700 sq ft) of space. When it opened, the restaurant had eight sections and served grilled oysters from Penghu, sushi topped with truffles and scallops, and soup with milkfish and oysters. It had a children's section containing small hamburgers and a dim sum cart featuring har gow mixed with truffle and asparagus. The restaurant's interior design is inspired by watchmaking, metalworking, movable type, Japanese sumo, and the making of lanterns.

The design of the restaurant's washrooms was inspired by Thai spas.
The restaurant sources some of its spices and other ingredients from Thailand. In her 2013 restaurant review, Vogue Taiwan reviewer Alice Cheng recommended the dishes firecracker shrimp, green papaya salad, mackerel cakes, chicken coated in green curry, meat skewers flavored with lemongrass, and chicken wrapped in pandan leaves. Siam More emphasizes traditional Thai food, so it excludes non-traditional Thai dishes like spicy chicken and moon shrimp cakes.

The brand's first restaurant opened on 15 July 2020 at Qsquare in the Datong District. The restaurant occupies roughly 70 ping (230 m$^2$; 2,500 sq ft) of space and seats 88 people.

In serving Taiwanese cuisine, the restaurant offers dishes that are easy to make rather than complicated dishes or Chinese aristocrat cuisine. It aims to provide affordable food that tastes like what a Taiwanese mother or grandmother would make at home. Several of the restaurant's chefs asked Grandma Fu Mei (Chinese: 富美阿嬤) to impart her skills to them. She was an 80-year-old woman who had run a Longtan restaurant for 58 years before retiring two years prior. In her lessons with the chefs, Grandma Fu Mei told them, "Only small-sized dried shrimp will be aromatic" and asked them, "What can you reduce in fried rice noodles?" Dishes the restaurant served were "stir-fried pork belly with squid", "two-color savory soup dumplings", and "soy sauce fried baby squid".
The brand's first branch in New Taipei City opened at Beyond Plaza in 2021. With seats for 98 people, the branch occupied 76 ping (250 m$^2$; 2,700 sq ft) of space.

The restaurant launched on the first floor of Hyatt Place New Taipei City Xinzhuang [zh] in the Xinzhuang District of New Taipei and is Feastogether's first brand to be focused on Western fine dining.

### A Joy

A Joy [zh] (Chinese: 饗A Joy) is Feastogether's sixth buffet brand, 10th restaurant brand, and 70th restaurant location. In late 2021, Feastogether began leasing A Joy's venue on Taipei 101's 86th floor. The company settled on starting A Joy after deliberating on 39 different proposals including non-buffet design concepts. They settled on a buffet because they believed Taiwanese diners prized having a wide range of different options and the line between fine dining and buffets had become significantly less defined. While in the planning phase, Feastogether was spending hundreds of millions of dollars each month on expenses for the venue. To open A Joy, Feastogether invested NT$300 million (US$10,740,369), roughly a third of which was spent on fire protection and other areas that customers could not see. This amount was about double what Feastogether spent on opening an Inparadise or Sunrise branch. A Joy opened on July 23, 2023. On the day that reservations became available, all spots for the next month were taken. It was Taiwan's highest-priced buffet when it opened, costing inclusive of the service charge NT$3,608 (US$129) for lunch and NT$4,268 (US$153) for dinner. To staff A Joy, Feastogether selected 150 employees out of the over 3,000 they have. The company gave a pay raise of NT$2,000 (US$72) to the employees they transferred.
A Joy occupies 555 ping (1,830 m$^2$; 19,700 sq ft) of space and seats 282 people. The restaurant's theme is "a love letter from Taiwan to the world" (Chinese: 台灣寫給世界的一封情書). When customers enter the restaurant, they are met with the osmanthus scent that the brand has selected. Mountains can be seen from the restaurant's entrance, which is decorated with a landscape painting titled "Previous Mountain" (Chinese: 珍山) made by CN Flower. The venue has plants fetched from 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) above sea level. Candy Chun of Elle said, the mountain ranges visible through the window along with the indoor plants and art produce a "tangible yet mysterious forest island imagery". The fashion designer Justin Chou [zh] designed the employees' uniforms. A Joy collaborated with Lights Up Studio, Tetera (Chinese: 持之音), and 12 composers to make Xiang Music (Chinese: 饗音樂). They produced music familiar to the Taiwanese people, incorporating sounds like spatulas colliding with pots, knives chopping on cutting boards, and noises from stir frying and deep frying. To create a soundscape of Taiwan's daily life, it incorporates the din of public transportation, hawkers, and night markets. Its design reflects various aspects of Taiwan's landscape and is divided into four thematic zones (mountain, sea, plains, and city).
A Joy has eight dining sections and serves over 300 dishes. When it opened, the buffet served Taiwanese specialities including basil Taiwanese fried chicken, Ayu sweetfish from Yilan, braised pork [zh-yue], si luo pork [zh], red tortoise cake, and the fried pastry gao jha [zh]. Desserts included a cake shaped as Taipei 101 and ice cream with flavors like black sesame, lemon, passion fruit, peanut, taro, and toffee milk tea. The restaurant served chocolate desserts with flavors like cilantro, cinnamon, Hakka lei cha, Taiwanese-style shallots, fermented bean curd, peanuts, and pomelo with pepper. TVBS's Fang Junming in 2024 recommended the dishes opilio crab, A5 Wagyu beef sushi, and rolls containing sea urchin and shrimp. Desserts he recommended were bamboo charcoal pineapple cake and butter pastries made of lychee and longan.

### Zhiyun

Zhiyun (Chinese: 旨醞) is a teppanyaki restaurant that provides set menu offerings and is Feastogether's 11th brand. Zhiyun was opened on May 21, 2024, on the 38th floor of HongWell i-Tower, which is in the Xinzhuang District of New Taipei. After launching the upscale buffet A Joy in 2023, Feastogether opened Zhiyun as another restaurant targeting the premium dining sector. Among the company's brands, Zhiyun at its opening saw the second highest amount spent by customers per visit. The company planned to use what it learned from the restaurant to improve the teppanyaki dishes served at its buffets. Chen Yihang, Feastogether's general manager, said when Zhiyun opened that if market testing was successful, the company planned over the following three years to launch five more Zhiyun locations.
The venue has 180 ping (600 m$^2$; 6,400 sq ft) of space and seats 78 people. It has three private rooms, and six teppanyaki stations. Five of the teppanyaki stations are rectangular and can each seat 10 people. The sixth teppanyaki station is circular and seats 12 people. The restaurant's entrance is an arched passageway constructed from red bricks. The interior designer modeled the entrance after a wine cellar theme in an attempt to express the brand identity of "time can ferment deliciousness" (Chinese: 時光能醞釀美味). Customers seated at the restaurant can see high rises through the window. There is a desserts section where people finished with the main meal can eat sweet foods. It also serves as a waiting place for people who arrive before their reservation time. Taiwan's earliest teppanyaki restaurants had a similar desserts section but later iterations omitted it owing to progressively more expensive rents. In a first for Feastogether restaurants, Zhiyun houses live aquatic animals on its premises. Its four fish tanks have red rock lobsters, abalone from South Africa, and surf clams. Other ingredients the restaurant used when it opened were scallops and sea urchins from Hokkaido, caviar, monkfish, Iberian ham, A5 Wagyu beef from Japan, and a prime cut of boneless steak from the United States.
Zhiyun's menu enumerates each dish's ingredients in a plain approach which follows contemporary Western cuisine and distinguishes itself from the typical teppanyaki restaurant. For every Western dish, it adds a "title" in a somewhat refined style like the Japanese kaiseki way of naming dishes where a seasonal dish is described with a haiku that celebrates nature. One example is "Formosa" is used to refer to the dish "red shrimp, cuttlefish, and tomato consommé soup". Another example is "twin souls dance together" is used to adorn the dish "scallops, clams, XO sauce, and caviar". A third example is "slow mountain and sea" refers to the dish "surf clams, fresh bamboo shoots, and chicken soup". Some of the restaurant's dishes featured cooking methods from China, Japan, and France. Desserts the restaurant served when it opened included teppanyaki popcorn and whiskey-flavored caramel pineapple cheesecake.

### Cat General Sushi

Cat General Sushi (Chinese: 貓將壽司) will serve à la carte Japanese cuisine and will be Feastogether's 12th brand.

The restaurant is planned to open in 2025 and will be located on the 14th floor of FEDS Xinyi A13.
