The Fires of Cooking: Hua Xiao Chu (2020)

It seems an odd recommendation given vastly different settings and subject matter, but both dramas concentrate on the relationships of individuals who have their own careers and dreams. They meet each other and fall in love, give and receive support from their partner and are single minded when it comes to their relationships, pushing aside any interlopers without hesitation.

Neither show uses dumb misunderstandings or a lack of communication to create drama in the relationship and just tell the story of a couple in love with each other.

Both beautiful chef historical. Chef Hua is more food focused. ML both know kung fu.
Showing historical kitchens and cooking.

Both are food-centered dramas that feature yummy looking scenes of cooking.

Meet Yourself and Chef Hua may be two completely different genres - modern and historical respectively, but the vibe they exude is similar. One being modern and one being historical might be the only major difference there is. Both are actually business related in their own respective ways (you can probably tell from Chef Hua's title)

They're both a breath of fresh air, relaxing, soothing, and healing. They have little to no conflict in terms of romance, action, family drama etc (Chef Hua may have a little more action, but it's not the focus).

Neither will leave you with an angsty aftertaste every episode, and you can watch it at your own pace, especially Meet Yourself.

Both are dramas centered around food in which one of the leads is a chef.
