Lu Xunwei, a genius at state banquets, lost all his sense of taste due to an accident and fell from the altar. He ran a private restaurant in a small town that no one cared about. One rainy night, Shen Zhinuan, his first love who had been away for seven years without saying goodbye, knocked on his store door in embarrassment with a little girl with similar facial features to him. In order to make a living, she became his cook; but she was the only one who could awaken his lost sense of taste. When the capital tycoon's iron hoof comes, and when the bitter truth that has been sealed for many years is revealed, he holds an iron spoon in his hand, uses memory as salt, and affection as fire, to cook a taste of "home" for her and her children that can compete with the whole world.
