CCTV News: Buying groceries and cooking seems to be a small matter for people's livelihood, but it is a big thing that cannot be separated from every day. In some vegetable markets in Shanghai and other places, consumers can only pay a processing fee of a few to ten yuan after purchasing fresh ingredients, and then carry the hot fresh fried rice home. How about this kind of catering service that "cooks on behalf of others"? Let's go and have a look together.
"If you buy vegetables, I will help you cook", a cooking service is launched here at Yongtai Road Vegetable Market in Pudong New District, Shanghai. We saw that before the meal time, the dining area here was full of customers waiting to cook. At the same time, many people brought them directly from the nearby vegetable market.

Merchants in the vegetable market will also provide customized and personalized services according to customers' needs.

The reporter saw at the stall of "frying dishes on behalf of others" that the processing fee ranged from 5 yuan to 20 yuan according to different ingredients. After asking the reporter's taste preferences, the boss quickly washed, cut and fryed the ingredients. In less than ten minutes, a plate of fried pork with a full range of colors, fragrance and flavor was released. The "frying on behalf of others" service not only saves consumers from the cumbersome cooking time when they go home, but also ensures the freshness of the ingredients and the personalization of the taste, which is very popular among office workers and the elderly.
Shanghai: Work together to protect the healthy development of "frying on behalf of others"
To ensure that the long-term and healthy development of "frying on behalf of others" services, there are still many issues worth paying attention to. For example, in addition to various licenses such as business licenses and food sanitation licenses, the fire safety, environmental sanitation, kitchen waste treatment, etc. of the site must also be guaranteed. To this end, the local area has done a lot of exploration.
Just when the reporter was interviewing, Li Dong, the boss of the "cooking agent" stall, had constant information on his mobile phone. According to Li Dong, the profit of "frying on behalf of others" is relatively thin. In addition to home-cooked dishes, they will also accept orders such as parties and patient care meals.

Li Dong told reporters that he has been in the catering industry for more than ten years. Last year, Yongtai Road Vegetable Market was upgraded and transformed. Due to the large number of migrant population around him and the large demand for snacks and catering, he had the idea of opening a "frying vegetables" stall in the vegetable market. However, if you want to cook in the vegetable market, you must apply for a "hot food production and sales" food business license. In addition, due to the open flames, the fire protection requirements for the stalls could not be passed, which made Li Dong difficult.

In order to solve this problem, when the vegetable market was renovated, it deliberately separated the dining area and the vegetable market, and fire shutter doors and fire protection systems like this were also renovated for Li Dong for free.
Song Jing, the head of a vegetable market in Shanghai, said: "In our location, a very small location with only 20 square meters, we actually installed an independent fire protection system, including fire roller shutter doors and some rapid supervision measures for fire protection."

By introducing the "frying agent" stall, the vegetable market has also changed the previous single sales model, forming a service platform integrating shopping, catering and leisure. At the same time, local regulatory authorities have also strengthened supervision of the "frying agent" stalls to ensure that the source of ingredients is traceable and that the processing process meets hygiene standards.
