England, 1908: Florrie Rutland and Luli Lau who, for very different reasons, find themselves unceremoniously ousted from their respective social circles.

Precariously alone in the heart of London, a fateful turn of events results in their paths crossing, whereupon their shared passion for experimental cooking provides an unexpected opportunity — not only to restore them to society, but to bring two worlds together.

A scintillating tale, inspired by real events, that reveals a surprisingly sensuous side of Edwardian life as we witness the arrival of England's first Chinese restaurant in Glasshouse Street, London.
