Check-In: From Third-Rate Streamer to Top Food God

Hey, are you writing for a live streamer? Let me give you an example. When writing about Zhizhu, the protagonist never discusses the food with the audience, such as the background, the chef, or whether the food was overcooked for presentation. All these comments are kept in the protagonist's head, without being shared with the audience.

After reading the first ten chapters and visiting three good shops, two of them are related to the Japanese. What, does China have no style of its own? Second comment: The author commented and then deleted their own comment, and then my post showed as violating the rules. I don't know if the author has broken their guard.

Having read up to chapter 38, is this male lead cursed? He goes to explore restaurants, and every single one causes trouble – one minute he's fighting, the next he's stabbing someone, then he's kicking an old man and then standing up for someone else. Who acts like this normally? What's wrong with you, male lead? Can't you be normal for once? Why does so much trouble come your way?! I'm getting tired of these kinds of plot points in novels!

No, this is the first time I've seen a chef say "If you're so good, then you do it" in a food novel. In reality, it's like going to a restaurant, thinking a dish is bad, and the chef comes out and says, "Stop complaining, if you think it's bad, then you make it." Is that even possible? Since when do diners need to know how to cook?

So many flaws! It's a genre I like, but I couldn't continue reading! The protagonist's girlfriend is completely superfluous; I don't know what her purpose is! And those classmate scenes are also unnecessary!

The main character is 182 cm tall and weighs 55 kg. Are you a bamboo pole?

I was initially quite looking forward to it, but the constant comparisons of cooking skills with others were a bit off-putting.

The premise is good, but author, you've turned it into a pretentious face-slapping story disguised as a food novel, or rather, a story where you have to show off at every shop you visit. After reading twenty or thirty chapters, aside from the first soy milk shop where everything went smoothly, which subsequent shop didn't have problems?

I've read 40 chapters so far. The male protagonist visited 5 stores and encountered 5 incidents: "deliberately releasing cockroaches to cause trouble," "a naughty child falling into the water," "a chef going to jail for a solo fight with the protagonist due to a negative review," "using fake food ingredients," and "an apprentice assaulting his master."

I just remembered... Lots of overly sweet restaurants, what do the real and fake chefs say? 🙂
