As a Chinese saying goes， “People can make a living from nature through hard work.” Once Upon a Bite， the latest food documentary， aims to tell the stories of how people live off the resources of the sea.

From the north to the south， intelligent Chinese people living along the coast have managed to support their families and themselves by relying on the sea. Exploring this theme， the eight-episode documentary series delves into （探究） China's seafood culture. Behind these yummy dishes are stories of China's traditional family ties. For example， the first episode of the new series introduces four dining tables and four families.

Young father， Li Tianyou， looks forward to his family of four being happy in the future; Old He hopes for a better life for the younger generations; Liu Huiqun's Bayu New Year's Eve dinner seeks to create deep memories; and Lin Benben's parents quietly express their love for Lin in the seafood feast. These beautiful and warm stories are the best interpretation of the flavor in the world and that's why the first two seasons of Once Upon a Bite are still popular with audiences.

Besides providing a comprehensive panoramic outline of the magnificent vastness of the Chinese oceans， the series has also won the hearts of young audiences by presenting stories of fishermen full of positive attitude toward the future.
