Maggie McElroy, an American food writer, is struggling with widowhood when she receives a call from the Beijing branch of her late husband's law firm. A paternity claim has been placed against his estate. Maggie decides to go there to arrange for a DNA test. Maggie's editor requests that she write an article about a rising culinary star, Chef Sam Liang.
Maggie meets with American-born Sam and follows him around as he prepares for a competition. She learns that the Chinese food she has eaten at home is nothing like the food of China. Sam steers her through the history and philosophy of the most famous dishes, and introduces her to his family who have always taught and supported him.
