The event serves as an important platform for promoting Chinese culinary culture. This year's event in Sweden was organized by Datong, and it was hosted by the World Federation of Chinese Catering Industry and the China Cultural Center in Stockholm. This event has enhanced the understanding and appreciation of Chinese cuisine and the Spring Festival culture among people in Sweden. 

In June 2023, the World Federation of Chinese Catering Industry awarded Datong the honorary title of "International Capital of Gastronomy", marking a new chapter in Datong's culinary journey.
