Shen Yu, who comes from a century-old family of chefs, is born with no sense of taste, a "family shame". In order to escape the ridicule in the kitchen, he became a numb social animal.
Until he bound the [Food Stall System].
The system releases tasks every week, allowing him to sell different delicacies in various corners of the city: selling youth dumplings at the entrance of Sakura Alley in spring, selling cold noodles amidst fireworks at night markets in summer, selling fresh meat mooncakes by the river during Mid-Autumn Festival...
The food he cooks can evoke the most precious memories in diners' hearts, and is regarded as an "urban legend". When his father, the strictest gourmet in the family, ate a bowl of Yangchun noodles from his stall late one night with red eyes, Shen Yu discovered that what he couldn't taste was never the taste, but the human heart.
Behind the system's mission, a grand picture about the lost flavor of Chinese cuisine is slowly unfolding.
