Episode 1

This is a cute drama, a classic one from Taiwan starring Chris Wu and Ivy Shao plus Ben Wu as second maie lead.  Ivy Shao and Ben Wu had such a sizzling chemistry in 2018 drama Love & Pi.

Anyway, Huo Tingen is a very accomplished cordon bleu chef of Le Mure.  It came to his attention that there was a popular online review of curry shrimp burger which was apparently made by a non-professional chef in a stall in a night market selling at a fraction of a price. Tingen and his maitre ‘d  joined the queue and when  Zhan Kai saw Wei Fen Qing, he was seeing his young sister who run away from home to be with her boyfriend.

Tingli, his sister ended up running a stall selling curried seafood but it was not popular as her cooking was not that amazing.

Tingli begged Huo Tingen to teach her how to make curry seafood but he declined thinking that if she learns she will never come back.

Whether she learned or not, she never did come back and he feels guilty about his poor pathetic sister.

When he tasted Wei Fen Qing cooking he was not overly impressed.  In fact, it made it sound that her cooking was so inferior that it was barely palatable.  He then took over her minute kitchen and made his version of curried shrimp burger.

The onlookers had a taste test and everyone was enchanted with the taste of his cooking.

The next day, Wei Fen Qing went to Le Mure and challenged Huo Tingen to teach her how to cook with curry, she promised that she can learn within seven days.

Wei Fen Qing is a pretty cute girl plus the fact that he carried a guilty towards his sister, Zhan Kai agreed but he would not make it easy for Fen Qing.
