Description

After a traumatic incident leaves celebrated chef Liv Kuo unable to leave her Manhattan apartment, an urgent request from her beloved grandmother draws her back to Taiwan. Ah-Ma asks Liv to help locate a daughter taken from her as an infant more than sixty years ago, sending them into a search shaped by family secrets, political upheaval, and long-held grief. As they uncover a treasured cookbook and buried truths about the past, food and tradition become a language of love, memory, and healing. This moving family saga explores mother-daughter bonds, cultural heritage, resilience, and the courage required to confront what has been lost.
