Storyline
Seo Pung (Lee Jun-ho) dedicates his whole life working as a chef in a Chinese restaurant at Giant Hotel. Not only did he not receive a promotion to Head of Chef (which he has been dreaming/promise of) but he was also betrayed by the hotel's owner, Yong Seung-ryong (Kim Sa-kwon). Seung-ryong has an affair with Pung's wife way before Pung was even married.
Pung leaves Giant Hotel vowing to seek revenge against Seung-ryong by snatching away his business. He becomes a chef at Hungry Wok situated right opposite of the hotel and serves the same dishes but with 1/8 the price. With Pung's superb cooking skills, he eventually won and became Head of Chef at Giant Hotel.
My View
Apart from the cooking scenes, the rest of the story is just not worth watching. I secretly shipped for Jang Hyuk and Jung Ryeo-won though.
