Xu Meng, a trainee chef at the time-honored Long cuisine restaurant Dunhuang Tower, is the son of a famous chef. Despite his lineage, he is repeatedly mocked for his poor cooking skills. He also carries the weight of his father's tragic past: his father was secretly harmed, lost his sense of taste, and never fulfilled his lifelong dream of creating the "Flying Apsaras Banquet." After a mistake in the kitchen, Xu Meng unexpectedly meets Su Xiaoyun, the heavenly kitchen god, who was banished to the mortal world for her gluttony. The two strike a deal: Su Xiaoyun will help Xu Meng master Long cuisine and win the Culinary God Competition, while Xu Meng will help her collect secret recipes so she can return to heaven.
Under Su Xiaoyun's guidance, Xu Meng devotes himself to mastering the essence of Long cuisine, from heat control and knife skills to the use of spices, breaking through his limits step by step. He deciphers poetic clues and successfully creates five classic Long cuisine dishes: Good Fortune Arrives, Yellow River Carp, Lanzhou Marinated Pork, Fermented Broth Ribs, and Crispy Fried Pork Slices, each carrying the profound heritage of Silk Road civilization and Yellow River culture.
