Boy and his grandfather grew up on a mountain. One day, the grandfather sends him down, telling him that the boy has mastered all his skills as the top chef of the Great Summer Kingdom, and it’s time to find his real parents. The grandfather gives him two keepsakes: one that leads to his parents, and the other, a chef’s token. The boy heads down the mountain, starving, and spots a "Master Chef" competition. Nearby, a restaurant is hiring a chef, so he heads in, tearing down the job ad and meeting the owner. The owner doubts the boy, but just then, the rival hotel chef comes in, looking to challenge the restaurant. The owner’s busy dealing with them while the boy watches. When the rival chef insults the restaurant’s cooking skills, the boy steps up and cooks a dish with fire, impressing everyone with his skill.
