"gourmet desert" usually refers to the situation that the local food culture is relatively simple, lacking in characteristics or the local catering industry is not developed enough. Here are some cities that are considered as food deserts:

1. Jiuquan: Located in the north of Gansu Province, it has become one of the representatives of the "Northwest Food Desert" due to its remote geographical location.

2. Jinzhong: a prefecture-level city in Shanxi Province. In the eyes of many local people, the food culture here is relatively underdeveloped.

3. Shuangyashan: A prefecture-level city in eastern Heilongjiang Province. Due to historical reasons and remote geographical location, there are relatively few food resources here.

4. Yichun: a prefecture-level city in the northeast of Jiangxi Province. Although there are various local products, it is not well-known in the whole country.

5. Xiangyang: a prefecture-level city in central Hubei Province. Although Xiangyang cuisine is quite famous in the local area, it is relatively inconspicuous in the whole food culture system.

This is only from some angles and evaluation criteria. In addition, even though a city may have less food resources in some aspects, it should not deny its unique food culture and special dishes.
