Story synopsis

After hours, the restaurant receives a handwritten negative review; head chef Gu He recognizes the handwriting as belonging to Lin Ce, a longtime regular, but the complaint in the letter is not about the taste of the dishes. The set menu leaves customers with smaller appetites with large amounts of leftover food each time, something he had always felt too embarrassed to bring up in person. She invites him to check the portion sizes and conducts trial preparations for an optional small-portion menu; the two turn their dissatisfaction into concrete adjustments and end the polite reserve maintained through mutual guesswork.
