About

The word 餐馆 is formed by combining two characters: 餐 (cān), which means "meal" or "to eat", and 馆 (guǎn), which means a "building", "establishment", or "place for a specific activity". When joined, they create a composite concept that literally means a "meal establishment", directly and pictorially describing a place whose primary function is to serve meals, that is, a restaurant.
