    These are the ones I think are good, just to let you know my personal taste beforehand. 1. I basically only read novels without romantic pairings. Most of the ones I recommend are without romantic pairings, and if one or two do, the plot is minimal. Ideally, there shouldn't be any ambiguous scenes or suggestive descriptions; if there are, I'll basically reject them. 2. The writing style should be at least decent, smooth, and without overly silly plot points. 3. I personally dislike stories about cheap and inexpensive food; I only read about high-priced items. Top-notch culinary skills should match the price, otherwise it's just frustrating and will attract low-class customers. The first book is the one I have the worst impression of and the lowest rating on my bookshelf. I added it because the food section is well-written, but the low rating is because the protagonist has character issues. The second book is the funniest and most interesting, but the updates are slow. The last book is the originator of the random street vendor novel, highly recommended.

    The first book was really good. The female lead is super cool, not a naive and innocent type, and she has her own principles. I've completely fallen in love with her; she has a lot of charisma. You'll really scream when you read the later parts. The other three books are also good. The romance is relatively natural and slow-paced, with more descriptions of food and cooking skills. The writing is all good, and the characters are well-developed. You can give them a try when you're looking for something to read.

    The female lead is so gentle and a great cook! I'm looking forward to seeing her expand her business and create all sorts of delicious food. The development of the male and female leads' relationship is also very sweet; their love is real! I feel like the male lead will become henpecked and completely controlled by Xiaoyu (the female lead's nickname).
