“Can grilled skewers make people start dancing? Can sweet soup make people cry and call out for their mom?
Lin Xiaofan has just taken over his grandpa’s barbecue stall at the night market when the System hits him with an outrageous task: ‘You must make skewers that make customers jump up today. Fail, and three months’ worth of electricity bills will be deducted!’
Just as his wok-flipping skill is bound, Auntie Wang, who sells sweet soup next door, comes over to complain: ‘Xiaofan, what seasoning did you put on those meat skewers?
That chubby kid started doing a folk dance in the night market right after eating one!’
And then a sharp-tongued food critic shows up with a camera: ‘You think this lousy stall belongs in the food section?’
Lin Xiaofan licks the chili powder off the corner of his mouth and grabs the God of Cookery skewer the System gave him.
‘Sis, why not try this one first? If you can still be sharp-tongued after eating it, I’ll eat the grill!’
(Night market buzz + a bizarre System + a hilarious underdog comeback. See how a street vendor grills his way to a life as the ‘God of Cookery’!)”
