Travel Tip: The Business Lunch Becomes Less Popular

bibimbapIf you’re trying to budget your business travel, one interesting statistic is shaking up a longtime cultural habit: the business lunch.

There are still 12 billion annual visits to restaurants.

The good news? The drop in lunch traffic is resulting in some restaurant discounts.
