According to the agreement's content and objectives, both parties will work together to further enhance the quality and efficiency of Taizhou's catering industry, promote the higher-quality development of Taizhou cuisine, and jointly support Taizhou's grand goal of creating a "World City of Gastronomy."

At the signing ceremony, Shen Mingquan, Secretary of the Taizhou Municipal Party Committee, and Yang Liu, President of the China Cuisine Association, delivered speeches respectively and jointly witnessed this historic moment. Chen Tingchen, Member of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee and Secretary-General, also attended and witnessed the signing ceremony. Cheng Weibo, Vice Mayor, and Huo Haimei, Specially Invited Vice President of the China Cuisine Association, formally signed the cooperation agreement on behalf of their respective sides.

Shen Mingquan, on behalf of the Taizhou Municipal Party Committee and Government, expressed sincere gratitude to the China Cuisine Association for its strong support in promoting Taizhou cuisine. He emphasized that cuisine, as the "liveliness" of a city, not only carries the unique charm of regional culture but is also a crucial pillar of urban development. Taizhou possesses profound culinary cultural heritage, solid foundational industry support, and a mature brand matrix, and is committed to creating a "World City of Gastronomy." As a professional guide and strategic think tank, the China Cuisine Association's professional expertise and resource advantages will provide strong support for the research and development of Taizhou's local dishes, the development of its catering industry, and the shaping of its culinary brands.

Yang Liu stated that applying to become a "World Capital of Gastronomy" is not only a concrete practice in cultural inheritance and development but also a significant measure to elevate the city's status and polish its urban brand. Taizhou cuisine, with its supremely fresh and delicious taste, its cooking philosophy of pursuing original flavors, and its culinary culture of harmony and integration, is deeply loved by diners both domestically and internationally. With the rise of leading catering enterprises like Xin Rong Ji, Lin Jia Yi, and Shun Ji, the influence of Taizhou cuisine is increasing daily. The collaboration between the China Cuisine Association and Taizhou will further promote innovation and integration in the local catering economy and foster prosperity in the consumption market. Both parties will jointly explore new areas of cooperation. Through resource sharing and complementary advantages, they will deeply explore and promote the unique charm of Taizhou's culinary culture, helping Taizhou become a nationally and even globally renowned culinary landmark city.
