To create innovative dishes fitting 90s tastes, he overcomes ingredient shortages and challenges traditional norms. When he wins over county leaders with “Buddha Jumps Over the Wall” and warms laid-off workers with “tomato beef brisket noodles,” he discovers the “mysterious recipe” that killed him in his past life is held by an old chef here… Watch the reborn boy rewrite his fate with food and brew the most touching life story in the 90s’ earthly warmth.
