Synopsis

[Absurd Comedy + Food + System, Focused on Street Stalls, No Romance]

An old French man slaps down 20 euros. "If there's no gold in this golden egg fried rice, I'm calling the police!"

Fang Yuan is just about to explain when the System pops up with a ridiculous line:

[This rice was made using Eastern alchemy. The gold has been fried into every single grain.]

"Are you sure?" Fang Yuan asks under his breath.

Three minutes later, the old man finishes eating and bursts into tears, saying he found gold at the bottom of the bowl.

A French chef finishes eating, then drives back to Lyon in the middle of the night, saying he needs to learn how to be a person all over again.

A philosophy student finishes eating and writes an eight-thousand-word essay titled "Learning the Philosophy of Chinese Kung Fu Through Egg Fried Rice."

Fang Yuan: "I really don't know kung fu."

The System translates: "A true master never admits to being a master. In China, that's what they call kung fu."

Later, when he goes to New York to sell scallion pancakes with savory sauce, the owner of the two-dollar pizza shop next door tries one, falls silent for a long time, and says, "I'm going to go out of business."

Fang Yuan: "It's not that bad. Your pizza has a purpose too."

"What purpose?"

"Making my pancakes taste even better."

The pizza shop owner nearly hurls his pizza peel at him.

Male- or female-oriented novels are both fine. No harems with three thousand beauties. Either no female lead, or just one. For female-oriented novels, anything goes, since I’m a total hypocrite about this. No brainless characters who get dumbed down!

Food Novels, But Not Ones Where the System Just Hands Out Recipes

I don't want stories where the System gives the protagonist individual recipes and they can only cook those dishes. I want a proper chef and food story.
