It's a bucket list of restaurants serving local, often obscure dishes, ranked cheerily from best to almost best.

...Such outspokenness is highly unusual in a nation where dissent usually lands individuals in detention. One salutary example is Tan Zuoren, a 55-year-old environmentalist and writer who was compiling his own parallel list of dead students. On March 28, he was detained by police in his native city of Chengdu in Sichuan province and hasn't been heard of since.

The volunteers "are constantly...
