China's 14th National Games, billed as mini Olympics in the country, is being held here in Xian, northwest China's Shaanxi province.
More than 12,000 athletes representing China's provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions, the Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions, the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps and specific sporting associations compete in this year's Games, which will run through to September 27.
The cafeteria here offers hundreds of food varieties every day, including all major cooking styles in China as well as western cuisine. All the cooking is provided by a company in the railway system, the National Railway Administration. It also provided service for the 12th National Games in Shenyang and the 13th in Tianjin.
