In order to entertain the endless flow of envoys from various countries, Emperor Yongle selected women who were good at cooking from all over the world to enter the palace and serve as the food choices of the Ming Dynasty Food Bureau. After many selections, the girl Yao Zijin was selected as the palace maid of the Shangshi Bureau, so she got acquainted with Luo Xingqiao, who was born in a beggar family, and the genius chef Su Yuehua. Yao Zijin, who had always been able to get by, was inspired by the two of them and became really interested in cooking. The three of them are full of ideas, innovating hundreds of fresh dishes, cleverly integrating them into Chinese medicinal diet, and reviving famous dishes from ancient books in the world. Step by step, Zijin went from being a palace maid, a female scholar, and a female historian to being in charge of cooking and cooking, and her cooking skills gradually improved. Along the way, Zi Jin struggled to pursue the position of Shang Shi, who had the highest authority in the Ming Palace's food and beverages. Zijin gradually understood the true meaning of "food". Food is a bridge that promotes communication between people and different cultures. In the end, she gave up competing in the most noble food competition, left the palace and joined the people, carrying forward the traditional food culture.
