Adapted from the novel "Small Restaurant in Chang'an" by author Banh Anh Dao, "Yen Ngo Vinh An" revolves around the story of Tham Thieu Quang (Vuong Anh Lo) - a food critic.
One day, she traveled back in time to the Tang Dynasty, in the body of a criminal's daughter, so she was exiled to the palace to be a servant. After being released, Thieu Quang started a business selling baked egg tarts and gradually developed it into a large restaurant.
While building his career, Thieu Quang accidentally met Kinh Trieu Thieu Doan Lam Yen (Ly Quan Nhue) and together they began an interesting journey about cuisine, folk customs and love.
Right in the closing video released by the producer on December 25, the audience expressed their excitement because "Yen Ngo Vinh An" combines many genres.
Including the sweet elements of a romantic film; the sophistication of a culinary film with delicious, visually stimulating dishes; realistic slices of life film with family atmosphere, humorous moments...
Another plus point is the appearance of the two Chinese actors - Vuong Anh Lo and Ly Quan Nhue - who are praised for being youthful and a beautiful couple.
Although the female lead has a similar side profile to her senior Dam Tung Van, Sohu praised her appearance as trendy and strong. Previously, she also made an impression with the role of female fighter Bao Bao in the movie "Di Nhan Chi Ha".
Meanwhile, the male lead is now a familiar face to audiences thanks to his role as Tong Mac in "The Nine Deadly Sins". With the success of the recently concluded film, Ly Quan Nhue is a name sought after by producers and directors.
Many people predict that the actor's character in the movie "Yen Ngo Vinh An" will be adapted, because according to the original, Lam Yen's story is quite bland, with little "land", instead, the author focuses on the female lead's career path.
Besides, the plot of the female lead traveling back to ancient times may be changed to dreaming about her previous life, or following the direction of traveling through games or books like some recent works.
