Plot[edit]
Wong Kai Joe (Louis Fan) has had hatred of his uncle Wong Ping Yee (Sammo Hung) in his heart for a very long time and does what he can to oust his uncle from the village and to claim rights to the Dragon Head Cleaver, a symbol of power to the clan. During a function, he used Yee's nephew to put poison in the form of salt. The guest become sick and Wong Ping Yee is forced out of the village. The story then shifts to Ken'chi who is the first to graduate from his school after being the first amongst his batch to place the emblem in the flag. He is advised by his principal to go and meet Master Sum who, he feels, will be able to teach him cooking.Meanwhile, Yee encounters Shum Ching (Cherrie Ying) and her sister (Ai Kago) by chance, and is determined to help them during troubled times at their restaurant 'Four Seas'. He trains a young chef, Ken'ichi Lung Kin Yat (Vanness Wu) to compete against Chef Tin (Lam Chi-chung), the head chef at 'Imperial Palace', for the title of 'Top Chef'. After the tournament, he meets his brother who is alive and to the angst of Joe who watches helplessly on TV.

May 30, 2017 Note:My rating is for the Shaolin Cinema release of this movie. I ordered Of Cooks And Kung Fu on this page from an Amazon seller since that was the only available item for purchase. I ended up with the 'Shaolin Cinema' release that has different cover art from what is shown here. It is a semi-washed-out video transfer.
