The flying birds in the sky, the walking animals in the mountains, the fish and shrimp in the river, the vegetables in the ground, the bamboo shoots and mushrooms in the forest... How to turn them into delicious dishes and eat them into my stomach is the major question that Lin Xiaozhu, a food lover, ponders on daily after arriving in ancient times. What did you say? My cuisine has had a good go at your mouth and grabbed hold of your stomach? Ha, that's your problem, it has nothing to do with me! Even if you're a good man, don't cling to me like this! Savoring the taste, unable to stop, that's it! "Savoring the Taste," let's see "Taste Chronicles."
