It first aired 14 May 2012 on China Central Television and quickly gained high ratings and widespread popularity. The seven-episode documentary series, which began filming in March 2011, introduces the history and story behind foods of various kinds in more than 60 locations in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. The documentary has also been actively encouraged as a means of introducing Chinese food culture to those unfamiliar with local cuisine. Various notable chefs such as Shen Hongfei and Chua Lam were consultants on the project.

“When the first season was released, there were only 40 to 50 food programs nationwide, but now that number is around 400 to 500. People’s expectations are changing, so is the food documentary industry,” the team posted on the program’s official Sina Weibo account, adding that the culture and stories behind the food have always been the program’s “foundation and soul.”
