Deliciously awkward moments, relatable characters, and a romance that grows in the most unexpected way.

Eliza Park’s senior year is set to be perfect: she’s on track to be salutatorian, give an emotional graduation speech, and enjoy her last year with her ambitious friends. But a scheduling mix-up lands her in Culinary Arts, where she’s out of her element. The class’s star student is Wesley Ruengsomboon, a talented and charming Thai American boy who both annoys and impresses Eliza. With her academic standing at risk, Eliza aims to beat Wesley in the midterm cooking contest. But as she bonds with him and taps into her grandmother’s Korean recipes, Eliza discovers new insights about success, love, and herself.
