**Synopsis** Ye Jiayao is a young and talented cook who dreams of becoming a renowned chef one day. As luck would have it, she's magically transported back in time to Imperial China, and in the body of an extremely useless girl, Ye Jinxuan. Ye Jiayao is immediately kidnapped and held for ransom, but she manages to use her wits (and her sense of humor) to get whatever she wants. After many twists, she thought that she would finally be able to lead a simple life and achieve her dream of opening the best restaurant in Huai Song. However, there are villains constantly trying to bring her down. -MAL & AniList ___ **Premiered**: Winter 2018 **Genres**: Comedy, Drama, Adventure, Gourmet, Romance, Isekai **Theme**: Historical **Websites**: [MAL](https://myanimelist.net/anime/37618/Meng_Qi_Shi_Shen) | [AnimeDB](https://anidb.net/a14663) | [AniList](https://anilist.co/anime/101973/Meng-Qi-Shi-Shen/) | [Anime Tosho](https://animetosho.org/series/meng-qi-shishen.14663) | [TVdb](https://www.thetvdb.com/series/meng-qi-shi-shen) **Synonyms**: Cinderella Chef | Meng Qi Shishen | 萌妻食神 | Adorable Food Goddess | Mengqi Shishen | Meng Qi Shi Shen **Source**: [Manhua](https://anilist.co/manga/125665/Meng-Qi-Shi-Shen/) **Duration**: 21 min. per ep. ___ Season Two Coming Soon!
