At present, there are 958 elderly canteens in Guangzhou, covering almost 100% of the entire city’s communities. Every day, many elderly people are active in the elderly canteens in various districts.

The 12 yuan buffet menu has been changed every month
Since this year, many elder canteens in Guangzhou have made new ideas and launched many innovative services. The most eye-catching buffet is the Baiyun District elder canteen buffet. Since May this year, the Tongde Social Work Service Club in Baiyun District has launched a vegetarian buffet experience activity in one of the elders’ canteens, and the effect is quite good.
Hundreds of private Cantonese cuisine and dim sum are added to the Elderly Canteen, making the vegetarian buffet both novel and healthy. In terms of price, it has been reduced from the original 20 yuan per 1 to 12 yuan per 1. It is reported that for elderly people with limited mobility, volunteers will also be organized to provide loving home services. “It turns out that the buffets that young people like are like are like this. They are all fresh and each needs are needed, and the people are frugal.” An old man said.
However, not every elder canteen in Tongde Street currently has a buffet. There is no other elder cafeteria hosted by Tongde Social Work Service Co., Ltd., but the rich dishes and the monthly menu also make the elderly praise it.
At around 11 noon on the 7th, several elderly people over 60 came to the elders’ canteen on Tongde Street. Some of them read newspapers, some chatted, and everyone was waiting for lunch. At 11:30, with the sound of “Food is here!” a red insulated box was carried in. The volunteers first took away the meal that was about to be delivered to their door. The gray-haired elder followed the volunteer to pick up the meal. Aunt Li from the Komiks Work Service Company took the meal tickets from the old neighbors while carefully taking notes on the table.
Not many elderly people eat on site, and there are only two people in Komiks. Aunt Li said that in the past, there were about 4-5 elderly people eating at home. Most elders choose to take them home. “It’s better to have a buffet, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t. The food here is different every day. Today is fried with chicken with ginger and scallions and shredded pork with black fungus beans. It’s delicious!” Mr. Yang Komiks was satisfied with the meal.

College canteens transform into elder canteens and sharing also requires mutual understanding.
The elder canteen is also located in the college canteen. In the Green Rongyuan Canteen of South China Agricultural University, faculty, students and elders can dine together in the canteen. Compared with other elder canteens, it can be said that it has a more “youthful” atmosphere.
Before entering the canteen, the reporter saw the sign of the “elderly canteen” in the campus passage. In the canteen, a special window for love for retired teachers and workers in China Agriculture and the elderly’s love for their lunch are specially set up, and the dishes are rich. “I live nearby and come here often to eat, which is mainly very convenient. I think it is very good that the government has opened such a love window for the elderly to allow the elderly to enjoy the benefits of Komiks. “Uncle Chen, a retired teacher from Huanong, said happily.
According to reports, the 70-year-old and above registered elderly people aged 10 or above and elderly people with special difficulties in Wushan Street who meet the government subsidy conditions will give each person a subsidy of 6 yuan per meal when spending in the canteen. Elders who meet the conditions can apply for a registration card in the community and hold this card in hand to go to the canteen to spend lunch. “Every day at lunch time During the Komiks period, about 800-1,000 elderly people came here to spend, and the number of people was very large.
Why did it open a window for elderly meals in colleges and universities? The canteen manager said: “In addition to meeting the basic requirements of our school, Hua Agricultural University can withdraw some extra resources to serve the elderly. This can also be regarded as sharing resources, helping the community share pressure; at the same time, it also gives love and helps some elderly people. “However, due to the limitation of venues and staff, the number of elderly people who go to the canteen is also large, which has caused some complaints between faculty and elders. He hopes that both parties will understand more.
At present, the canteen of the Guangdong Provincial Agricultural Reclamation Bureau also has a “Love Dining Window for Elderly” jointly built by the street to provide more convenience for the elderly. In addition, some restaurants have begun to become elders’ canteens. Cinema for example, Taihe Town, Baiyun District has cooperated with the public restaurant since the end of February this year to beat them.This has resulted in one of the home-based elderly care meals in the town community.

It’s so rude to eat the elders’ canteen? Listen to what the elderly say
Some elders believe that the elderly canteen is a place where only elderly people who are not cared for will go. Such institutions are similar to rescue stations or shelters. It is very rude and even embarrassing to eat at the elderly canteen. The reporter found that this was not the case when he visited.
First of all, the software and hardware are more particular, and secondly, the sight of the elders’ canteen is a happy scene of chatting and eating. Liu said that they had conducted a survey and the elderly who went to the elders’ canteen for dining mainly for lunch from Monday to Friday, and most of them had family members responsible for catering during the rest of the time. Not only will you not feel ashamed, but you will also eat with relish.
Grandma Liu, who enjoys 11 yuan, said, “I come here to eat every Monday to Friday, and I am very happy.” Grandma Cai, who enjoys 7 yuan, said, “I have been eating since I started to open until now. The food environment here is very good. The social workers in Komiks are also very familiar with me.” Grandpa Tang, who enjoys 9 yuan, said, “Every day, the dishes prepared by Cinema will be different, and I like it very much. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>KomiksHappy.”
In addition, the elders’ canteen does bring happiness to the old neighbors. Grandpa Zhang, who has a “one-yuan dining”, has a monthly retirement salary of 1,600 yuan. He is not only a “three-no-person”, but also a disabled and an elderly person with widows. He was unable to move and needed to use crutches, and the “one-yuan dining” really helped him. If it is not a long Cinema Canteen, he needs to walk to a far-reaching vegetable market and buy a dish of one person.Please ask the neighbors to bring him some food along the way, and then cook small pot meals by yourself.
