Chapter 52: The Jianghu is Everywhere

Not to mention this era, even in the previous world with such a variety of seasonings, abundant and easy-to-obtain ingredients, and convenient information exchange, the level of cooking skills nationwide was still uneven, with no shortage of culinary low points.
No one wanted to admit that the food from their province was bad, but most acknowledged that people from certain provinces were better at cooking.
