Twenty Years of Endurance in a Cold Cave

The Village Food God's New Year

Lin Xiaoman, a young chef at a Michelin restaurant in the city, sneaks back to his village to participate in the "Village New Year Food God Competition" to win back the "family recipe" he lost in a bet with his father. Three years ago, he fell out with his father, who insists on preserving local dishes, because he wanted to learn Western cuisine. Now, as soon as he arrives at the village entrance, the villagers see him as a "traitor". On the day of the competition, his father turns out to be a judge and deliberately asks him to make "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall" using a clay stove. Xiaoman uses his grandma's pickled vegetable jar as a container, combining French stock techniques with the village's cured meat and mushrooms. When he serves the "Nostalgia Buddha Jumps Over the Wall", his father's tears fall into the dish—turns out the recipe was never a bet; it was his father's way of fearing he'd forget his roots.
