Xia Wan, the head of the food department, has lived by the rules all his life.
She knew what kind of fire should be used at what time, what kind of dish goes with what dish, how many times the emperor moved his chopsticks, and which dish the ladies liked to eat. For a moment, he was dazzled by dressing up as a young apprentice in a modern Michelin three-star restaurant, who was scolded by the chef.
Xia Wan almost lost her temper when she looked at the "unruly" chef in front of her.
"If you don't cut beef according to the grain, you will be punished with a cane!"
"If you don't skim the soup when you make it, Shangshi Bureau will lose face!"
"Oh my God! You actually use one pot to cook two kinds of ingredients, how disrespectful!"
Everyone in the kitchen? Is this new guy suffering from some serious illness?
The irritable chef Lu Hengzhi threw his spoon and said, "You can do it!"
Xia Wan rolled up her sleeves and said, "Come on!"
Later——
The long-lost palace "glazed eight-treasure duck" has reappeared in the world, shocking the food circle.
A dish of "snow-topped with greenery" will make even the pickiest gourmet lose their temper on the spot.
Diners line up three months in advance to reserve a table for the "summer evening".
Once upon a time...
