Zhang Jun Ning as Zhang Jian

Dad, I’m finally getting to meet you in Hang Zhou.

Let’s not waste anymore time.

Let’s meet quickly.

I really miss you.

Isn’t it right here?

This place, this place.

The noodles here are delicious.

Hello, how many, sir?

We have two.

Do you guys see those bowls?

Allegedly, they’re Hang Zhou Noodle’s 100-year-old bowls.

One bowl

is worth 60,000.

*Approx. $10,000

60,000!

I heard they’re going to be used in tomorrow’s competition.

They’re only a bit better than the ones at the store.

Are we eating noodles or eating bowls?

They complement each other, you ignoramus.

Don’t try to reason with him.

I bought this flavor enhancer at the store.

Take a look at it.

Do you know who Jian-ge is?

*Ge - short for Ge Ge, literally means “brother,” but can also be a suffix indicating respect

Do you know?

No idea.

The son of the owner.

He’s going to be the boss someday.

He uses ¥60,000 bowls.

Do you think he cares about your unorthodox methods?

That cost 50 bucks!

Approx. $8

I used my own money! Seriously.

Don’t waste your breath on him.

Let’s go.

Come on.

Zhang Jian,

how are preparations going for tomorrow?

Zhu Ling Ling,

you came just in time.

You’re an expert.

Help me taste this bowl of noodles.

See how it tastes.

Li Fei Er as Zhu Ling Ling

It’s taste and presentation aren’t bad,

but it’s missing something important.

What’s that?

The flavor from Hang Zhou Noodle.

I’m not saying your noodles taste bad,

but they seem to be missing some feeling.

We can eat noodles

because the people who make them do so with feeling.

That’s why

it’s like missing your mom’s cooking the most

no matter where you go.

But

I don’t taste any feeling

in this bowl of noodles.

If you can,

try not to act like an elite.

If you have the time,

come to our noodle shop

and have a good meal.

Maybe then you’ll realize

what I’m talking about.

It’s not like you cook noodles.

How do you know if my noodles have no feeling?

I sense it.

After eating the noodles,

it’s not about the flavor, but about the feeling.

Hang Zhou Noodle

has existed for a 100 years

because we put in 100% feeling

for the customers.

Like how we give

the kids from the orphanage

free noodles each week.

Even if they’re not the best in the world,

they can taste our good intentions.

Did Grandpa tell you this?

No.

Okay.

Then I ask you to leave my kitchen.

I—

I know the competition tomorrow is stressing you out.

I’m just trying to help.

Sorry.

What’s that?

Sir, what’s that?

It’s so big!

Hi, hello!

Got it!

Mom!

Mom!

Mom,

watch over me.

Watch over me as I find Dad.

Are you listening?

I’ll do my best.

It’s taste and presentation aren’t bad,

but it’s missing something important.

What’s that?

The flavor from Hang Zhou Noodle.

Found it.

Hello, sir.

How many?

This way, please.

Okay.

Here?

Yes.

Sir, what would you like to order?

Please take a look.

Um... that...

Right.

Pian’er Chuan.

*A type of noodles that are cut thin and complemented with preserved vegetables, notably bamboo shoots

Pian’er Chuan? Right here.

This one.

Menu: Pian’er Chuan / 11 Yuan ($2) Main ingredient: Cut noodles Additional ingredients: Chicken stock, vegetables

Right! That’s it.

Alright. Coming right up.

One order of Pian’er Chuan!

Excuse me.

Thanks, thanks.

Okay.

Hang Zhou Noodle.

How do they get it so pretty?

So exquisite.

Sir, what will you have?

Give me a bowl of your least expensive Yang Chun noodles.

*A type of noodle dish that has clear broth and to which vegetables are not added.

Alright.

Just a moment.

Liu Wen Zhi as Zhang Gao Xiu

No thanks.

Here.

I have some.

Thanks.

Enjoy.

Hold on.

Thank you, thanks.

Mom,

I’m finally here.

I’ll enjoy it.

I’m not saying your noodles taste bad,

but they seem to be missing some feeling.

If you can,

try not to act like an elite.

If you have the time,

come to our noodle shop

and have a good meal.

Maybe then you’ll realize what I’m talking about.

Grandpa.

Sorry.

Kid,

do you know the story behind Pian’er Chuan?

Come.

I’ll tell you.

Wang Si Yi (Taiwan) as Wu Run Mei

Chairman.

Vice-chairwoman.

The location for the competition tomorrow has been prepared.

I’ll take you two to have a look.

Okay, this way please.

Hello, Chairman.

The design

was prepared by the most capable

decorating company in Hang Zhou.

Everything has been arranged to the highest standard.

Chairman.
