Under the cover of night at a Japanese restaurant, the current Prime Minister Ichiro Ato (played by Fumiyo Kohinata) and his secretary Koichi Koga (played by Kenichi Takito) are discussing important matters with a big shot. However, the other party is in a bad mood and has no appetite. Just as the atmosphere becomes tense, the temporary waitress Kurumi Ikki (played by Ayame Gouriki) brings out a small dish, instantly lightening the mood. Koga notices this detail and recalls Ikki, who had already been dismissed. It turns out both he and the Prime Minister recognize the importance of food politics, so they decide to revive the position of 'Official Residence Chef,' which has been absent for seventy years since Shigeru Yoshida. Desperate, Ikki reluctantly accepts the proposal, and will she be able to make a name for herself in a male-dominated world with her extraordinary cooking skills? This film is adapted from the manga by Mitsuru Nishimura and Michiru Osaki.
