Exposing Overpriced Cuisine: The Cooking God in Me Gets Exposed

Lu Xiu activates the Culinary God System and sets up a late-night stall near the university district, but upscale restaurants resell his dishes at astronomical prices.

Roujiamo? No, it's a tender, handpicked American pork chop in a garlic wheat bun.

Tomato and scrambled eggs? Pan-fried insect eggs with sun-drenched Tuscan tomatoes.

Jianbing, spicy pepper soup, soy milk and fried dough sticks, hot dry noodles: diners can't get enough of them.

The more diners he attracts, the more famous Lu Xiu becomes.

Top student: "Is there egg fried rice this good overseas? If not, I'm not going."

Struggling student: "I actually got into college just so I could eat this."

Female streamer: "Today I'm checking in at a roadside stall. The dry-fried beef ho fun is insanely good."

Fan: "Funny you should say that. I had pan-seared A5 Wagyu with traditional white jade noodles today, and it was amazing too."

But the restaurant owner is getting more and more worried.

Employee: "Boss, there are too many people. We can't get in line!"

Buyer: "The pay for standing in line is too low. I'm becoming a scalper."

Scalper: "This food is too good. I'm done being a scalper."

"Boss! We've got a problem!"

"The Culinary God is eating at our restaurant!"
