Su Xiaotang, a Michelin kitchen assistant from the 21st century, flips her spatula and somehow transmigrates a thousand years into the past, becoming an undocumented outsider in Chang'an during the Tang Dynasty. Penniless and unable to speak the language? No problem! She starts with a tiny street-food stall called Su's One-Bite Delight, bringing modern snack ideas to Tang-era tastes. She earns her first fortune and attracts two very different kinds of trouble. One is Prince Zhao Li Yi, sharp-tongued and seemingly idle on the surface, but far more formidable than he appears. He nitpicks that her dishes are “passable,” all while quietly paving the way with real gold and silver, becoming both her most arrogant investor and her “strategic adviser.” The other is Chen Yidao, a master chef whose family has fallen on hard times. Impressed by her ingenious ideas, he willingly becomes the technical backbone of Su's, quietly protecting her with his exceptional cooking skills.
From a cramped little stall to taking over the Drunken Immortal House and renaming it the House of Savory Delights, Su Xiaotang's entrepreneurial journey is packed with laughs and challenges. Modern management practices leave the Tang-era staff bewildered, a transparent kitchen astonishes the locals, and her fusion dishes take Chang'an by storm. The business battles are just as fierce: rivals slash prices, cut off ingredient supplies, and spread rumors. But Boss Su always has a counter for every move, whether it's food auctions, membership cards, or joint promotions! She keeps leveling up, going from street-food vendor to owner of the House of Savory Delights, with her sights set on becoming Chang'an's number-one restaurant! Success at the top brings matters of the heart. The arrogant Prince Li Yi gradually reveals his true feelings and shows his formidable protective side in a crisis. Meanwhile, the devoted master chef Chen Yidao's constant support is just as swoon-worthy. Can chili peppers set Chang'an ablaze? In a flourishing age where kitchen smoke curls into the sky, can Su Xiaotang claim the glory of owning the finest restaurant and find a sweet home of her own? Her tale of transmigration and triumph is about to begin!
