The protagonist Lin Ye (a modern ordinary chef who is good at home cooking) accidentally traveled to Chang'an during the Zhenguan period. He had no system and no golden fingers. He relied only on modern cooking knowledge and survival skills to survive in the market. However, he accidentally got involved in the upper class because of a bowl of "counter-intuitive" egg fried rice. In the end, he used food as a bridge to live out his own rhythm in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
