Should we do more to feed the mind?

Although it was raining, the weather was failing to dent the passion for crawfish in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province.

The crawfish restaurant I visited opened at 4:30 pm, but some diners had arrived before 4 pm, hoping to secure a table before the eatery became packed.

It was not long before the 40-plus tables were all occupied. Diners came and left, but there was no sign of the crowds waiting outside thinning when I departed at about 8 pm.
