Restaurants say they may stop serving popular chicken dish

A famous Guangzhou chicken dish may disappear from menus as chefs have said they will no longer cook the traditional meal if they can't purchase live chickens.

The two major downtown districts in Guangzhou - Yuexiu and Liwan - and the mega university town in Panyu district have been selected as pilot areas to require that only frozen poultry be sold at local markets and bazaars starting May 5.
