Tiffany spent her previous lifetime slaving over stoves to please an ungrateful husband, neglecting her young daughter Cynthia only to die abandoned in an empty ward. Reborn into the bustling streets of 1990, she packs her knives and walks out the front door, vowing never to be anyone's servant again.
Teaming up with loyal ally Zander, Tiffany opens an independent diner that highlights her generational culinary wizardry. When her spiteful ex-husband conspires with an established restaurant dynasty to ruin her business, Tiffany outcooks their chefs in high-profile competitions, building a nationwide food empire on her own terms.
