About This Novel
"Jue Xiang" is a novel describing the food culture of Kaifeng, the ancient capital. As early as the Northern Song Dynasty in restaurants in Tokyo, waiters were called "Xingcai". They clearly and accurately communicated the customers' orders to the chefs by announcing the dishes in the hall. At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, "Xingcai" was renamed "Tanghuer". The sound of announcing dishes in the hall rhymes with the same rhyme, and the sound is pleasant to the ear. However, as times changed, Xiangtang culture gradually declined. The business model and service methods of the modern catering industry have undergone tremendous changes, and the unique charm and style of Xiangtang culture have become memories. The novel "Jue Xiang" describes the rise and fall of Xiangtang culture. Through the rise and fall of the famous time-honored brand "Youyixin" in Xiangfu City, it tells the story of the grudges, hatreds, joys and sorrows of three generations of catering people. With the development of history and the progress of the times, Xiangtang had to withdraw from the stage of the times. But as a cultural phenomenon, its reverberations linger.
