I, the Tang Dynasty's God of Food, Rely on Technology and Bold Tricks!

In 2025, Jiang Fan runs a restaurant serving pre-made meals. A public backlash over his use of additives and dubious food practices drives him into bankruptcy. Disheartened, he discovers that a door in the kitchen connects to the Tang dynasty in the second year of the Zhenguan era!

From the start, he runs into two top-tier young nobles, both famished and practically glowing with hunger: Cheng Chumo and Fang Yiai.

What should he do? Serve them a bowl of pre-made braised pork first!

One bowl of pork leaves the sons of dukes, who are used to the finest delicacies, utterly stunned. They declare that everything they've eaten for the past twenty years was pig feed!

Then he brings out a bottle of ice-cold cola!

One sip, and its fizzy bubbles and crisp chill win over the young troublemakers completely, inspiring the loudest burps of their lives!

But the trouble is only just beginning.

A leftover piece of meat draws the attention of some truly important people: Cheng Yaojin, the fearsome troublemaker, and Fang Xuanling, the great chancellor of the Tang dynasty!

When Cheng Yaojin threatens to tear down the shop if the food isn't good, Jiang Fan stays calm and immediately makes an even bigger boast: “This bowl of noodle soup was simmered for forty-nine hours with eighteen mountain delicacies and twelve kinds of river seafood...”

Looking at the broth made with non-dairy creamer in the bowl, Jiang Fan smiles faintly.

Today, he'll show the Tang dynasty's rulers and ministers what real “additives and food tricks” look like!
