During the just-concluded May Day holidays, the government canteen in Rongchang district, Southwest China's Chongqing Municipality, opened its doors to the public, specially offering over 20 local specialty dishes that provided visitors with the opportunity to enjoy a one-stop culinary journey of authentic local flavors, with prices ranging from 3 yuan ($0.42) to 18 yuan per dish, according to the Xinhua News Agency.
Imagine having a local cafeteria within walking distance with dishes that start at 50 cents a pop. Couldn't be my country that ruthlessly charges the poor for access to food (USA).
