China’s president, Xi Jinping, was out and about in Beijing Qing-Feng Steamed Dumpling Shop Yuetan Store this week and showed citizens that he too is capable of servitude. Not only did he line up to buy his steamed bun from a small vendor, he also worked as a waiter, serving the buns to unsuspecting customers.
The owner of the bun shop didn’t know that December 28 would be his lucky day and was very surprised when his country’s leader showed up to perform the service. Once Xi had finished his shift, he joined a few of the patrons in sharing the buns he had worked so hard to sell.
The president’s appearance has lit a popularity fire for the little shop which has since seen more than 400 customers a day lining up to try a sample of the ‘bun fit for a president’. The meal, no called ‘The Chairman’s Meal’ consists of two large pork buns and a portion of onions, accompanied by a side of mustard. The meal will cost you 21 RMB. One customer even drove all the way from Wuhan to try the now-famous meal.
