share time: 2025-12-15 12:30:21

Modern food blogger Su Xiaoman accidentally travels into an ancient novel while staying up late to write a review, becoming the landlady of 'Fulai Restaurant'—a newly opened eatery on the verge of bankruptcy. Faced with an empty kitchen, a debt-ridden account book, and daily harassment from the rival 'Xiangmanlou' restaurant’s owner, she’s ready to give up—until she catches a mysterious man, Gu Zhao (a rumored retired imperial chef heir), stealing her cola from the backyard. Starting with a 'cola war', they bicker and collaborate: Su Xiaoman uses modern marketing to launch tapioca milk tea and spicy hot pot that take the town by storm, while Gu Zhao improves dishes with his family’s secret recipes. But just as the restaurant rebounds, 'Xiangmanlou' exposes her as a 'fake landlady' and accuses her of 'using sorcery to deceive people'! Caught between the risk of being raided and budding romance, can Su Xiaoman protect her ancient restaurant dream?
