A dish is served in a unique bowl carved from a gourd at the Museum of Chinese Food Culture in Shenyang, Northeast China's Liaoning province. The museum has recently begun to serve new treats for autumn under meal sets called "Gourd Feast," "Jade Plate Feast", and "Home-style Feast" - classified by the shape and materials of the plates and their cultural connotations. The move is aimed at changing people's stereotypes of the city's food culture which are known for being oily, rich, full of sauce and unrefined. [Photo provided to chinadaily.com.cn]
