Kate Jenkins doesn' t believe in fate. She believes in a clear vision, meticulous planning, and hard work. On the cusp of opening her own Parisian restaurant, Bistro Exotique, she isn' t even concerned when her standoffish - and annoyingly sexy - neighbour dismisses her as a crazy American tourist or when she meets the wildly eccentric Garrance, the self-proclaimed Spice Master of Paris, who ominously warns her of the previous owner' s failures. Confident and optimistic, Kate keeps calm and cooks on. Until a series of unfortunate events derail her plans and her entire staff quits.
