During the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, what traditional Chinese delicacies will appear on the tables of athletes, staff and media reporters? Listen to the reporter Yu Bochuan's report:
In order to leave a good memory on the tip of the tongue to the people who come to participate in the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, so that they can feel the charm of Chinese food culture, the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee said at a press conference a few days ago that the Winter Olympics coincided with the Spring Festival, lantern festival and other festivals, and the food represented by dumplings and lanterns should be timely, and there were also special foods in Yanqing and Zhangjiakou areas for visitors from all over the world.
"What can leave an instant in catering is the taste, and what can leave a memory must be a cultural symbol." Yu Debin, director of the Service Department of the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee, said, "There are so many guests during the Spring Festival in China, we must take out the housekeeper's dishes, such as 'Breaking the Fifth', during the Lantern Festival will prepare dumplings, Lantern and other delicacies, in addition, there are local specialties such as tofu dishes in Yanqing, so that everyone can taste fresh." ”
Beijing is the world's first "city of double Olympics", and the fine products in the menu of the 2008 Olympic Games have also been passed down, and Beijing roast duck is one of them. Yu Debin said: "We have participated in the annual meetings of the International Olympic Committee many times, and many athletes said that they no longer remember the content of participating in the Olympic Games in 2008, but they all remember eating roast duck during the Beijing Olympic Games. So this time, in terms of catering, we also prepared Peking duck for various stakeholders at the hotel, as well as Beijing snacks such as spring rolls. ”
In addition, in terms of dish names, allergen identification, etc., the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee has also made meticulous preparations. Yu Debin said that all the meals served during the Winter Olympics are required to indicate Chinese and English logos, but also to take into account the allergens of some guests, the possible allergen ingredients must be marked well, while ensuring food safety, so that all parties can fully feel the festive atmosphere, to provide everyone with heart-warming catering security services.
