NCUE offers diverse dining options to meet the food needs of teachers and students and consider their nutritional needs and health.

1. Both NCUE campuses have cafeterias that provide comfortable and clean dining areas for the teachers and students.

All NCUE’s cafeterias are self-service restaurants, with vegetables-base and meat-based meals placed in different zones for easy identification by non-vegans, semi-vegetarians, and ovo-lacto vegetarians. Various cafeteria locations show calorie labels to assist diners in achieving a healthy diet while enjoying affordable and delicious meals.

2. NCUE’s cafeterias follow multilevel and multifaceted management protocols to maintain optimum hygiene.

NCUE’s hygiene measures include self-management, ingredient registration, supervision by external hygiene authorities, supervision by internal hygiene teams, supervision by the food management committee, and hygiene consultations for universities and colleges to provide the faculty members and staff with a comfortable and clean dining environment and a nutritious and healthy diet. The cafeterias offer a variety of food-court services for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They also offer buffets of Chinese food and light meals; Western-style cakes, fruit, and ice bars; and local snacks. (Figure 1)
