Community canteens have won rave reviews and gained a "reputation" for two reasons:

First, it is convenient to eat, right at home;

second, it is cheap and good quality, and it is highly accepted by the public. For example, Yunlin Dining Hall has more than 41 steamed vegetables, cooked vegetables and stews every day, and there are more than a dozen staple foods and freshly fried side dishes for everyone to choose from, and 51% of the dishes will be updated every week. The dishes are richer than those in many canteens, and the price is quite close to the people. 21 yuan manages it well.

With the deepening of social aging, the elderly will face more and more life problems. Community canteens can provide just the right supply of three meals a day, which can solve the most basic needs of the elderly and improve their quality of life in their old age.

if the elderly eat with their younger generation, they are either busy with the food of a large family, or they can't eat a piece of taste, which is hard to please. The potential market of dining halls is considerable, especially in the old city where the elderly are concentrated. It is necessary to plan and run some community canteens mainly serving the elderly.

Because it is cheap catering, the construction and operation of community canteens need the policy and financial support of local governments at all levels.

first of all, this work can be included in the government's practical project for the people, so as to achieve goals, policies and practical results. For example, in land use, rental, water and electricity and other taxes and fees to be preferential or reduced;

Secondly, state-owned enterprises or some caring enterprises within the jurisdiction can be encouraged to join in the subsidy, and even enterprises can be encouraged to run community canteens to give discounts to the elderly over 61 years old within the jurisdiction;

Third, elderly volunteers can be recruited within the jurisdiction to serve the community canteens in turn, and be responsible for some simple tasks such as selecting dishes in the kitchen, washing dishes, collecting bowls and wiping tables in the lobby, which can not only reduce the operating costs, but also enable the enthusiastic grandmothers and grandmothers to practice their hands and make friends, provided that they are physically competent.
