  The article notes: "距离澳门大三巴仅8分钟路程的天神巷，正是微辣旗下首间零食店——辣记（LAJI）所在地。 ... 这些手信味道都是带点微辣，但包装相当趣怪，如凤凰卷的包装与女性卫生用品相似，杏仁饼包装则模仿安全套，玩味十足。 ... 六毫子笑指澳门人经常会遇到车位不足，出现“泊车难”现象，故辣记特意推出优惠，如市民被抄牌，只要出示抄牌纸，可免费获赠牛肉干一块，可见辣记噱头多多。" This is translated to: "Travessa dos Anjos, only 8 minutes away from Macau's Ruins of Saint Paul's, is the location of Laji, the first snack shop under the brand. ... For example, the packaging of the Phoenix Roll is similar to feminine hygiene products, and the packaging of the almond biscuits is imitating condoms, which is full of playfulness. ... Sixtycents laughed and pointed out that Macau people often encounter insufficient parking spaces and “difficult parking”. Therefore, Laji specially offers discounts. If citizens receive a parketing ticket, they can get a free beef jerky as long as they show the parketing ticket. A lot of spicy gimmicks."

New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. As all sources are foreign-language, unable to check for close paraphrasing. Hook is hooky; foreign-language ref AGF and cited inline. I just wonder why the hook calls it a physical store instead of a retail store or just a store? Image in article is freely licensed. QPQ done. Good to go.

Yoninah (talk · contribs), thank you for the review!
The "physical" in "physical store" can be omitted:
