Chengdu chain shop full of foreign athletes late at night! Fisu President's advice: Hold back!
In the early morning of July 30, in a food street near the Universiades Village in Chengdu, some netizens found that many restaurants were filled with foreigners. A closer look showed that they were all members of the delegation who had come to Chengdu to participate in the World University Games.
Food is an integral part of life and culture in Chengdu as the city holds the title of UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy. In 2010, Chengdu became the first city in Asia to earn the recognition for its rich culinary culture and traditions.
During the FISU Games, the athlete's cafeteria in the Chengdu FISU Games Village will offer a diverse range of international cuisines, including famous local delicacies such as twice-cooked pork, fish-flavored shredded pork, kungpao chicken, Long's chaoshou (a type of dumpling), Lai's tangyuan (a stuffed, ball-shaped dessert made of glutinous rice flour), dandan noodles and Chengdu skewers.
