Synopsis of Magic Kitchen (translation) The original version is available at http://pctv.netvigator.com/pctv/estore/productdisplay? categoryId=MVE_M_MK&page=3
Mu Rong You (Sammi Cheng) is the sole owner and the head chef of an elegant private restaurant. Her extraordinary culinary talents are well acknowledged in the culinary field. She was invited by a well- known Japanese culinary television show as their guest star to challenge other reputable chefs in the business. However, she rejected this great opportunity because she did not have much interest in participating in a competition. This made her assistant Xiao Ke (Jerry Yan) puzzled.
In truth, Rong You burdens two secrets about her life. First and foremost, she does not actually possess any unique culinary trade secrets; she inherited all her recipes from her mother who has passed on. Rong You's mother was interested in trying and experimenting with different dishes when she was alive; she kept a collection of these recipes in her personal recipe book. Rong You's other secret is her curse. She believes that she is the victim of an ancient curse. She was repeatedly told about the story of the curse since young. Her mother retold the story to her. About a hundred years ago, Rong You's ancestral grandmother, Mu Rong Ju, used a unique magical technique (spell) called "Inhaling star changing moon" on a fellow chef, Au Yang Qing, who evidently admires her. This technique has the power to "inhale" the AuYang's family unique cooking skills that has been inherited for generations. Ju's righteous and stern father was angered by her actions and thus, hired a powerful figure to condemn Ju with a curse. This powerful curse condemns every girl in generations to come to suffer a similar fate. They are destined to be chefs but they will not be able to hold on to a relationship because all men will ultimately leave them. This curse can only be stopped when the love debt owed by the Mu Rung Ju is repaid to an AuYang's later generation. Rong You's mother suffered the same fate as well. Rong You's father abandoned her when she was pregnant with Rong You. This story of the curse left an impact on Rong You's love life and her views on love and life.
Rong You could not put memories of her former boyfriend, Chuan You (Andy Lau) behind her. In the days when they were still an item, every single time she tried to present herself to Chuan You, strange things would happen to ruin their plans. Rong You was certain the curse is causing these mishaps to happen. Tension built between the two of them that they eventually broke up. After a couple of years, when Rong You meets Chuan You again, Chuan You was already with her mature and elegant friend Chuan Wei. Rong You felt helpless.
On the other hand, Xiao Ke is actually secretly admiring Rong You. He knows Rong You's feelings towards Chuan You and thus, chose to respect Rong You's decision. He chose to be by her side, to wait for her. At the same time, he provided Rong You with continuous support, hoping that she will one day overcome her fears, avoiding her mother's fate, and being true to herself and leading her own life.
Under many complicated circumstances, Rong You still could not make up her mind; she did not have the courage to stand up for herself. Observing the people around her (the relationships of her room mate, Zhi Kui and Mu, Tony movie editor who lives upstairs, Chuan You and Chuan Wei who eventually ended their relationship too), she saw many different viewpoints and experiences from their love lives. Xiao Ke's sincerity finally touched Rou. She decided to gather her courage to strive for her own life as well as to love Xiao Ke.
The two lovebirds headed for Japan to participate in the culinary competition. This competition was extremely important for Rong You. Rong You finally realizes that only if she courageously faces her true love, the curse would be lifted. This competition bonded Rong You and Xiao Ke closer together, as a beautiful love story finally blooms.
