Unemployed modern youth Hua Jiao inherits her family’s shabby old shop and discovers its back door connects to two worlds: modern times by day and ancient Chang’an by night. She runs a food shop in the ancient era with exclusive delicacies, which quickly go viral among scholars, Western Region merchants, the crown prince and princess. She grows rich by converting ancient gold, silver and jades into modern cash. Sabotaged viciously by rival restaurant owner Zhang Cheng’an, she wins everyone over with her extraordinary flavors. Invited to serve desserts for the Eastern Palace Autumn Banquet, she stuns the whole court and gains royal rewards. Falling in love with Lu Xiao, a loyal palace guard, she plans to expand her business and build a top-tier restaurant in Chang’an.
