By this month, 180 dining spots in Shanghai's central Jing'an District had signed up for the "White-Collar Lunch" project, according to the Jing'an District Commercial Commission.

It aims to provide affordable meals, priced at around 20 to 30 yuan on average, for the district's 200,000 white-collar workers and create business opportunities for restaurants facing a tough operating environment.

According to the Ministry of Commerce, during the first quarter of this year the high-end dining industry in Shanghai saw a 20 percent fall in revenue, while Beijing's has witnessed a 35 percent drop.
