The story takes place in the early 20th century, amidst chaos in old Beijing. The time-honored Fojude, on the brink of crisis, invites Lu Mengshi (played by Wei Zi) from Shiyuju to help turn things around. With the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the famous chefs from the royal kitchen have scattered, and female chef Liu Jinding (played by Wang Ji) becomes Lu's capable assistant at this critical moment. On the other hand, Ruiying (played by Zhang Jiayi) from Shiyuju is Lu's arch-rival; competitive and ambitious, he seeks every means to bring Fojude down. Various forces—the hair-bun army, warlords, revolutionaries—swirl in and out of old Beijing like a revolving lantern, while merchants at the bottom of society, sensing the winds of change, strive desperately for survival. From all corners of the world and all walks of life, a multitude of people gather at Fojude, staging various human tragedies and comedies... This film is adapted from the play of the same name.
