Lin Ye was originally a food delivery worker in the Magic City. His exceptional cooking skills caught the attention of Mr. Wang, a hotel owner, and he later cured a wealthy man's son of a chronic illness using medicinal cuisine. He reunites with his grandfather, Lin Zhengqing, who has lived in seclusion for twenty years, and exposes the truth about cheating in the Chef King Championship years ago. At the God of Cooking Competition, Lin Ye defeats the villains Mark and Chef Zhou, reclaims his family's honor, and eventually establishes the Lin Family Culinary School to pass down authentic cooking techniques and the principles of proper conduct.
