Lu Jin is a handsome, wealthy hotel executive whose drive for perfection is matched only by his taste for fine cuisine.

Now, these bitter rivals find themselves brought together in the kitchen in this light-hearted romantic comedy, infused with fun and flavors to create a delicious dish that foodies around the world wouldn't dare to miss.
