Honestly this book is really good, but sadly the stability of the updates is ****. Please improve the translation frequency. The suspense is killing me!.

Now, sorry if my reviews are too long but, this story is great and was in my opinion, one of the best. It was high-quality and had barely any flaws and a good way to pass time, it's light-hearted and fun to read! I had a joy reading and be assured I actually read the novel, it doesn't back away from the original goal and Qidian chooses novels well! Here's why: Translation Quality: Now, as we all know, Qidian has high-quality translations and I've seen no errors currently while reading this. It's been expected of Qidian and better translations means better quality and understanding. It makes it way easier to read, (compared to other translations I've seen on sites) and you should find no problems reading this. Updating Stability: The translations manage to have good stability and quality while updating (which is as always expected of Qidian). The translation speed is a little slow but, it ties in with the updates for the raws. A translation frequency surpassing the release frequency of the original novel isn't good. Which is why I have no problems regarding this. Story Development: The plot of the story is ******, cooking. Though it has times where it delves into other things, it's mainly about cooking. I like the simplicity and it explains well why these things happened and there aren't any info dumps telling you things that you wont need to know or repeated information. This is great since, (unless you're a cultivator) memorizing information only to find out you never needed to know it, isn't gonna make you happy. There are basically no tropes and the story follows the objective. The plot is outstanding, it's well explained, and unique. Character Design: The characters have unique personalities and they aren't repeated, (unless you count arrogant young masters) though some characters don't have much background. The main characters and characters develop throughout the story and this can be seen if you pay attention. Although there isn't enough background information on some of the characters, it makes it up with plot and thought-out personalities. World Background: The world is slowly introduced to you at good pace, I love how it's like that. Like usual, the world and cultivation systems are unique and are easy to understand. They don't diverge into information you don't need to know yet which makes it so much easier to know what's happening, and how the world works. This is wonderful and I liked how it did it at a reasonable pace. Again, sorry if my reviews are too long, but Gourmet of Another World is a great story, and you should read it. I recommend this story at 4.8 stars!

This novel is essentially garbage, or as I call it personally, unhealthy fried food. It is tasty though (Pun intended). We know that this novel follows the story of a young man who transmigrated or reincarnated into a cultivation based world with a system that trains him to become the god of culinary. Although so far we haven't seen a good rival for the main character (Bu Fang), the mouth-watering foods in this novel will still make you drool. Another cool part about this novel is the equipments and tecniques since Bu Fang is a chef, his culinary god system is unique and the rewards it offers are also fun and creative. Other than that, the plot is very repetitive and boring. This is somewhat of a different version of Library of Heaven's Path (LoHP for short), which the difference of the MCs both specializing in different fields- One in essentially everything and one in cooking. One thing I do want to point out is that the novel introduces Bu Fang as a person from Earth who transmigrated into a different world, a world whereby people could cultivate (You can see this from the synopsis so I won't say much). However, I notice that it is becoming a trend in these types of "Isekai" novels to introduce the MCs into another world, despite the irrelevance of the fact that came from Earth. In this novel, the fact that Bu Fang came from Earth doesn't really play a role in what he thinks and does, since he came from Earth, we would expect his way of thinking to be influenced by Earth's culture and thus act and think differently from the others. Although the gimmick of making "Isekai" MCs bring an item to the world they transmigrated into is cliche and overused by now, I'd rather Bu Fang retain and show something that makes him stand out. Most importantly of all, we haven't really heard much about Bu Fang's backstory since we start off with him already being in a different world. Honestly, I would rather he be "non-isekai" than "isekai". Bu Fang is a boring person, we never know what's he thinking because he always remains nonchalant and shows a poker-face. Other than his will-power to withstand the charms of drop-dead gorgeous women and indifference to people of higher statuses, he really does not have anything to boot. Read it if you have nothing else to read. It is a waste of time though, I wouldn't recommend spending spirit stones on this (I did and I regretted it), just read it on another site to byspass the stupid paywall. Gourmet from another world offers you: Feel-good imaginary descriptions of various mouth-watering foods, beautiful women (Stomachs tamed by the Bu Fang), cool equipment and techniques.

Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

After being reincarnated in a world of Gods, Demons, and Great Emperors, Wang Wei embarks on a journey to bear Heaven Mandate, proves the Dao, and proclaims himself a Great Emperor--a Supreme Being that overlooked Myriad World and Races. However, his Dao involves despising fate and its encompassing glory. So what awaits our protagonist on his journey full of vicissitudes to defy and even control fate? While he controls the fate of countless races and worlds, is fate playing with him? Can he escape the very shackles of fate that he controls? Better Synopsys: After an unknown cosmic accident that enveloped the Earth, Wang Wei was reincarnated into a magical world of spiritual cultivation. This world was composed of powerful Demons, cunning and brutal Devils, ruthless and indifferent Gods, detached and ethereal Immortals. More Importantly, Great Emperors--Supreme Beings that stand above everyone and everything, even life and death itself. Despite being born in one of the most powerful sects in the world, Wang Wei was placed under tremendous pressure when so many expectations were placed on him by his sect due to the fact they have not cultivated a Great Emperor for countless millennia--an act which threatened the fundamental status of his family, friends, and sect. On top of that, Wang Wei was not one of the chosen few of this world that was granted special gifts by Heaven, thus further aggravating his circumstances. However, he did not retreat in the face of adversity. With the mindset that “If Heaven does not give me, I shall take it for myself”, Wang Wei begins to plan his rise to the top with a brilliant tactical mind and the help of his mysterious soul so that one day he will become a Great Emperor that not only control his fate but the fate of all lives in existence. This story has a similar setting as Emperor Dominion, I am a True Villain, and Scoring the Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Get-go. If you enjoy this type of story, then you will enjoy my story. The first 30 chapters or so have many problems story-wise, so please bear with it as I was just beginning as a writer. However, I promise the story gets better afterward.
