Regardless of familiarity, the prices will probably seem quite unfamiliar to us. The establishments open to the public are the over one hundred food service enterprises within the Expo park. However, the "banquet" party mentioned that this is a staff canteen, not open to the public. Earlier news was about "Hunan shredded pork noodles making its way into the Expo Garden, at 35 yuan per bowl, which seems a bit expensive." NetEase's Expo channel set up three options under this news item: a. Starve rather than eat b. Already spent more than 100 yuan on the ticket fee, grit your teeth and splurge another 35 yuan c. Of course you should buy, otherwise what else would you eat? Let's talk about eating and drinking issues within the Expo Park. Basically, you have to rely on several catering businesses within the park to solve it. Bring your own food in? It doesn't seem like it's prohibited, but the question is, where would you eat it? Moreover, carrying a bunch of food around while touring the Expo Park just feels so unreliable. Based on our experience, the accumulated knowledge regarding eating and drinking problems within the Expo Park equals approximately zero: we only had the opportunity to be "treated" by the Expo Bureau at the Expo staff canteen, with a banana, a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, a bowl of soup, a plate of shredded meat stir-fry, and a bowl of rice. Because it was a "treatment," the price of this set meal remains unknown. On April 2nd, 2010, Wuxi Tourism Festival hotel in Changzhou surrounded by the Ancient Grand Canal offers a free 24-hour reservation hotline: 4007840076, dedicated to serving you. In reports related to the Expo, the most highlighted aspect has been the release of the Expo Park's food map. The editor-in-chief of NetEase's Expo Channel asked us with a sly smile: Which one do you choose? Still, as previously mentioned, choice is an important issue. The largest dining center within the park is located west of the Expo Axis. This dining center features culinary areas such as the Chinese Cuisine City, the Eight Great Cuisines of China, Lane Ambience, and the World Food Grove, offering a diverse dining and relaxation destination integrating various national specialities. Opening the Expo food map, for Yangzhou residents, there are many familiar faces: Ajisen Ramen, Yonghe Soya Bean Milk, Auntie Dumpling, KFC, McDonald's... and also some new ones: Zhen Guo, Charoen Pokphand Culinary Arts, Bountiful Day... There are two main places to dine within the Expo Park area: one is the public zone (which can be understood as the commercial zone), and the other is inside the exhibition halls. The public zone will host 128 restaurants, capable of accommodating 32,000 people dining simultaneously, with meals being relatively cheaper here, set meal prices ranging from 30 to 100 yuan. Inside the exhibition halls, there are 60 restaurants, estimated to accommodate 10,000 people dining simultaneously, with relatively higher prices, average spending per person ranging from 100 to 400 yuan.
