The concerned father has trended on mainland social media as a result of his actions.

His daughter, Li Bingdi, is a second-year student at Jilin Normal University in Siping, Jilin province, northeastern China.

Over the past year, Li has complained that she did not like the food at her school, which she said was unhygienic and did not have the “taste of home”, Dahe News reported.

As a result, her father resigned from his job at a barbecue restaurant in Tianjin, 900 km south of Siping, and went to southern China to learn how to cook fried rice and noodles.

He then rented a stall near the gates of his daughter’s school.
