A nine-second video clip of the man was posted on Sina Weibo, China\u2019s equivalent of Twitter, along with a comment suggesting he was under such pressure to deliver the food on time that he stepped into the restaurant kitchen to cook it himself.<\/p>\n

Seen in the video alongside several other harried-looking chefs in an unknown location, the man is wearing the uniform of Meituan, a giant courier business that delivers products including restaurant orders to customers\u2019 doors.<\/p>\n

Customers can trace the route of their deliveryman once they have placed<\/a> an order for food and the estimated arrival time appears as well.<\/p>\n

However, the hundreds of netizens who have commented on the video on Weibo are mostly more sympathetic \u2013 and impressed by his cooking skills.<\/p>\n

“He is a veteran. See the rhythm of tossing the dish,” said @Chaoxiepulaoban.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I think he can change his job to a cook,” suggested @Situlanxi.<\/strong><\/p>\n
