Mai Zhi Hao (Zhang Wen Xiang) comes out of prison with not just a criminal record, but a certificate- he has learnt to cook! Not surprisingly, SCORE recommends him to the 'Twilight Kitchen' restaurant. But as they say, reality bites, and he fumbles at the very bottom as the kitchen help. He is even sent to take care of Min (Moses Lim), once proud owner and Master Chef of 'Twilight Kitchen', but now a wheelchair bound, stroke victim, forsaken outside his own house by his family. Before long, the two develop a friendship; Min takes Hao under his wings and Hao learns the skills from the ailing master himself. But the days of the 'Twilight Kitchen' itself are numbered - faced with sibling rivalry, greed and dwindling customers. Can the once glorious 'Twilight Kitchen' be saved in time?
