Bai Mo, a straight man, opens a tiny God of Cooking restaurant.
After eating the heart-wrenching rice that makes you weep, a criminal breaks down...
"I want to turn myself in! I'm so miserable, please arrest me!"
Then there's the urine meatballs, which people use as ping-pong balls.
"You're only a world champion. Here in China, you're not even as good as the old guys who play ping-pong with urine meatballs!"
And that's not all.
Bai Mo is a little troubled. All he wants, as a straight man, is to cook, but Shang Youyou, Jiang Lai, and the others all treat him like their male idol.
This novel and its characters are entirely fictional. Any resemblance is purely coincidental. Do not imitate.
I'm curious, why do almost all food articles include a dish named 199?
