Rookie chef Lin Xiaocong cherishes the dream of gourmet food, enters a famous culinary school, and begins a journey of ups and downs under the guidance of the eccentric celebrity chef Hong and others. He entered the celebrity chef competition hand in hand with Su Xiaowei, his apprentice at the same time, and got acquainted with competitor Zhao Niuniu and food critic Tang Hara. He also had to deal with various difficulties from restaurant owner Li Awang. Along the way, the undercurrents of cooking star competitions, exchanges with foreign countries, and "food world" are intertwined with each other. As her cooking skills and emotions develop, Lin Xiaocong is involved in a culinary revolution sweeping the industry while deciphering the stories behind the food. The tug-of-war between friendship, love, ideals, livelihood, and fame and fortune allowed him to step out of the humor and passion of "The Spatula River" and taste the bitterness and sweetness of growth and human nature. In the end, he revived the legendary restaurant with his original cooking, united chefs from all walks of life, and became the god of cooking in the new era. His kitchen knife, shovel, and spoon danced a new chapter in his life.
