    Why do you lie?

    It is not two chapters a week. It is not three nor is it four.

    Unless we are going to get three more chapters in under 40 hours, it is not four chapters a week.

    If you cannot find the time to translate, then stop translating and let someone else do it.

    It is not four chapters a week, that is a lie.

    Stability of Updates sucks more than a RoyalRoadLL fan novel.

    Among cooking webnovels, this is definitely one of the better ones. Particularly in terms of world-building, this book does a much more compelling job compared to other cooking webnovels like “Gourmet Food Supplier”, “Kitchen Xiuzhen”, and “The two-faced Venerate Emperor”. It also avoids the obvious romance cliches, which makes it much more enjoyable. I personally like the poker-faced MC type with a lazy ambience, so Bu Fang is totally a cool MC from my perspective, but for other readers the MC’s lack of emotional engagement might be a serious minus (such readers may look up “Transmigrator meets Reincarnator” and “The Heartbeat at the Tip of my Tongue” as these are also great cooking novels albeit with far more emotionally invested MCs).

    "Summary
    In a fantasy world where martial artists can split mountains and creeks with a wave of their hand and break rivers with a kick, there exists a little restaurant like this.

    The restaurant isn’t large, but it is a place where countless apex existences will rush into.

    There, you can taste egg-fried rice made from phoenix eggs and dragon blood rice.

    There, you can drink strong wine brewed from vermillion fruit and water from the fountain of life.

    There, you can taste the barbecued meat of a ninth grade supreme beast sprinkled with black pepper.

    What? You want to abduct the chef? That’s not going to happen, because there’s a divine beast of unfathomable level, the Hellhound, lying at the entrance.

    Oh, that chef also has a robotic assistant that killed a ninth grade supreme being with a single hand and a group of crazy women whose stomachs were conquered."

    This novel is essentially garbage, or as I call it personally, unhealthy fried food. It is tasty though (Pun intended).

    We know that this novel follows the story of a young man who transmigrated or reincarnated into a cultivation based world with a system that trains him to become the god of culinary. Although so far we haven't seen a good rival for the main character (Bu Fang), the mouth-watering foods in this novel will still make you drool.  Another cool part about this novel is the equipments and tecniques since Bu Fang is a chef, his culinary god system is unique and the rewards it offers are also fun and creative. Other than that, the plot is very repetitive and boring. This is somewhat of a different version of Library of Heaven's Path (LoHP for short), which the difference of the MCs both specializing in different fields- One in essentially everything and one in cooking.

    One thing I do want to point out is that the novel introduces Bu Fang as a person from Earth who transmigrated into a different world, a world whereby people could cultivate (You can see this from the synopsis so I won't say much). However, I notice that it is becoming a trend in these types of "Isekai" novels to introduce the MCs into another world, despite the irrelevance of the fact that came from Earth. In this novel, the fact that Bu Fang came from Earth doesn't really play a role in what he thinks and does, since he came from Earth, we would expect his way of thinking to be influenced by Earth's culture and thus act and think differently from the others. Although the gimmick of making "Isekai" MCs bring an item to the world they transmigrated into is cliche and overused by now, I'd rather Bu Fang retain and show something that makes him stand out. Most importantly of all, we haven't really heard much about Bu Fang's backstory since we start off with him already being in a different world. Honestly, I would rather he be "non-isekai" than "isekai".

    Bu Fang is a boring person, we never know what's he thinking because he always remains nonchalant and shows a poker-face. Other than his will-power to withstand the charms of drop-dead gorgeous women and indifference to people of higher statuses, he really does not have anything to boot.

    Read it if you have nothing else to read. It is a waste of time though, I wouldn't recommend spending spirit stones on this (I did and I regretted it), just read it on another site to byspass the stupid paywall.

    Gourmet from another world offers you: Feel-good imaginary descriptions of various mouth-watering foods, beautiful women (Stomachs tamed by the Bu Fang), cool equipment and techniques.

    Frankly, I think Release the Witch should be No.1 and we should be No.2. If you agree with me, vote with your power stones! This is my pledge to everyone here, if we hit top 10, I'll dump one of my other novels to translate 7 more chapters per week. If we ever hit No.2, I'll translate another 7 more chapters.

    This is my favorite novel here, but unfortunately it seems like the translator is dead.
    Many happy wishes on the road to reincarnation.
    Could we get a new one please?

    This is really the very first cultivation novel where MC is neither power hungry nor intent on face slapping nor judgemental of other people. He hasn't even killed anyone! And he never went around stealing stuff while claiming that he was the only good person around.

    The most hilarious parts are those where everyone acts like typical cultivation novel people do and then he comes and treats them like an ***** would delusional teenagers.

    Like...
    Cultivator a: You did not give me face! I will murder you for dishonoring me!
    Cultivator b: I won't give in! I will show you the power of whatever sounds mystical and impressive!
    MC (slightly annoyed): Brawls are forbidden in the store. Please go outside if you want to fight. If you don't stop you will be stripped and kicked out.
    Cultivator a: How dare you! Do you know who I am?
    Cultivator b: How dare you ignore this great me? *Tries a surprise attack on C. b*
    *C. a dodges and tries to destroy furniture but fails*
    Then Whitey strips both and kicks them out while MC goes back to the kitchen to cook for his dog.

    Dropped this novel after 100 something chapters. I can't stand the MC in the novel. Just another arrogant and selfish prick MC like many other chinese novels. The only interesting part of this novel is the cooking but even that gets repetitive and boring. NOT RECOMENDED!!!
