Synopsis
Lowly hotel cook's helper with ingredient-memory power fights to survive brutal kitchen life and reclaim self-worth.
Seonghoon Kang has been the cook's helper at Jewelria, a third-rate hotel, for years, causing his self-esteem to plummet lower than his standing in the kitchen. However, he has a secret that makes him a cut above the rest... he can see the "memory" of an ingredient with just one touch! The sear of the kitchen may scorch the meek, but can this rookie chef survive the heat and prevail over the grueling struggles of life? Or should he just get out of the kitchen for good?
