That's an unorthodox way of using "bring it on"...

"快到碗里来" is a meme from an ad of M&M's. It's associated with a metaphore "你是我的菜" (You are my dish. You are my cup of tea.) Since "you" are my dish, hurry and come to my bowl, which expresses that I like/love you.

快到碗里来 sounds like an imminent fight / tryst between two dumplings.

@ElpieKay Yes. Therefore, you have to have the two parts together. "你是我的菜，快到碗里来" - means I love you and you are mine. Please come into my arms right now.

No, 快到碗里来 does not mean "bring it on". It means "Bring yourself to come to me".

**Edit:**

Base on the comments, 快到碗里来 is equivalent to "Let's get it on" in English

~

The idiom for "Bring it on" is [放馬過來](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E6%94%BE%E9%A6%AC%E9%81%8E%E4%BE%86), not 快到碗里来 (hurry and get into the bowl) which sounds like someone talking to his food

Maybe a mishear or someone making a joke

> Hard times, good times, happiness, sadness, bring it on.

> 艱難的時光，美好的時光，快樂的時光，悲傷的時光，放馬過來吧！

We usually use the term "放馬過來 (bring it on)" when accepting challenges, "good times and happiness" don't sound like a challenge

Better example:

國家領導人：「通漲，水災，國際制裁，放馬過來吧！我都給你接下！」

National leaders: "Inflation, floods, international sanctions, let's bring it on! I'll take care of them all for you!"

"bring it on" is tough guy speech, "I'm not afraid of anything, bring it on!"

Easiest is: 来吧

or

随时奉陪

or

奉陪到底

快到碗里来 seems to be the name of a computer game.
