About

Die once? Tragic. Die twice? Now we’re cooking. Talented chef Luke Liu exploded spectacularly in his San Francisco kitchen, only to wake up in the freshly murdered body of his other self, in another world. Welcome to Fragrant Bowl City, of the Thousand Flavor Realm, where cooking is a matter of life, death, and immortality.  Where cooking is cultivation . Now known as Ming Shi, our hero is about to embark on a gourmet adventure, spiced wildly with gastronomical superpowers, spectacular cooking duels, and one very salty, homicidal uncle. The Pearl of Heaven Soup Dumpling can only have one master, you see. Armed with two lifetimes of cooking obsession, Ming Shi is going for Godhood, one dish at a time. His motto is simple: cook things, don't die . This is harder than it sounds, with all the culinary conspiracies that could kill him. The Primordial Elements like the taste of him. The Ascension Cuisine cabal is hunting him. The fugitive princess next door is kind of a hazard by association, what with her being wanted for treason and all.  It's fine. Whatever. The point is: from street food zero to Michelin Immortal, this will be a culinary epic that makes you laugh, cry, laugh again, and raid your kitchen at 2AM.  Grab your chopsticks, Fellow Daoist. Your table at Dim Sum Dao is waiting.  WARNING: Contains obscene food descriptions that may have you moaning in public. Maximum absurdity, serious character development, and scrumptious plot twists that if you were reading closely, you’d have seen coming all along.  Posting Schedule Adjustment: 2x week every Mon/Thu until next Seclusion Week, to bring back up to 3x (Eastern TIme/UTC-05:00) Patreon ahead by tier level.

No harem.  RESPECTS Senior Illustration Daoists Covers by Sadman Paints and   Rechenbaer Senior Brother Editor Not all heroes wear capes. Some are members of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading. They write six page style sheets to track your caps and hyphens, make you lol in the margins, and once, when you were hospitalized for a month with a brain disease, they enabled you to sneak out for real food. Behold the Editing Dao of Robin Black .
