A Crown Prince has rejected all candidates for the job of Imperial Chef, but young chef Ling’s succulent commoners' dish wins him over. While Ling’s savory meat dishes please most royal diners, the Emperor and the Empress are vegetarians. Ling tries to handle these restrictions but is betrayed by a seething Noble Consort.
