The Down-and-Out National Chef, Selling Boxed Meals at a Street Stall Before Becoming a Legend Again
Liu Guangming, once a renowned master chef of state banquets, is framed by his beloved apprentice, Zhang Haotian, and falls from grace. To earn his daughter's school fees, he retreats into the streets and sets up a boxed-meal stall beside a construction site, offering all-you-can-eat meals for just 15 yuan. Though his surroundings are humble, his culinary skills amaze everyone. Wealthy businessmen offer him huge sums for his recipes, but he firmly refuses. When Zhang Haotian cuts off his supplies, sets fire to his stall, and sends an undercover spy to steal his techniques, Liu Guangming remains unfazed. At a culinary competition, he sweeps the field with a long-lost state banquet tofu dish and exposes the conspiracy. Ultimately, the newly crowned champion returns to the streets and opens a special charity counter, warming the hearts of countless passersby with delicious, affordable food.

Liu Guangming, bekas cef terkenal yang pernah mengendalikan jamuan negara, telah difitnah oleh anak murid kesayangannya, Zhang Haotian, sehingga kehilangan kedudukannya. Demi mengumpulkan wang yuran persekolahan anak perempuannya, dia menyembunyikan diri dalam kalangan masyarakat biasa dan membuka gerai nasi kotak berhampiran tapak pembinaan dengan harga 15 yuan sehingga kenyang. Walaupun berniaga di lorong yang serba daif, kemahiran memasaknya mengagumkan semua orang. Golongan hartawan menawarkan wang yang besar untuk mendapatkan resipinya, tetapi dia menolak dengan tegas. Walaupun Zhang Haotian menghentikan bekalan, membakar gerainya dan menghantar penyamar untuk mencuri kemahirannya, Liu Guangming tetap tenang. Dalam pertandingan masakan, dia menewaskan semua pesaing dengan hidangan tauhu jamuan negara yang telah lama hilang dan membongkar konspirasi tersebut. Akhirnya, juara baharu itu kembali kepada kehidupan masyarakat biasa dan membuka kaunter khas kebajikan, menghangatkan hati ribuan orang dengan makanan lazat pada harga berpatutan.
