随着新来的厨师马里奥（塞尔吉奥•卡斯特利托饰）的到来，餐厅的宁静逐渐打破。玛莎认为马里奥是要替代她的职位，两人之间一直存在了激烈的摩擦。
但Unexpectedly, Mario helps Martha not only in the kitchen but also in healing the emotional wounds of her daughter. Even when Lila was taken away by her biological father to Italy, Mario selflessly followed Martha there.
因此，玛莎决定用她的双手去抚养这份美味关系。
