(NECN) - Hundreds of workers at Boston's two convention centers are on strike this weekend.
Food service workers set up picket lines this morning in front of the Hynes and Boston Convention Centers.

They've been working without a contract since October.
Workers say they want a contract that is comparable to that of workers in hotels across the city.
