France, 18th Century. The prestige of a noble house depends above all on the quality of its table. At the dawn of the French Revolution, gastronomy still is a prerogative of the aristocrats. When talented cooker Manceron is dismissed by the Duke of Chamfort, he loses the taste for cooking. Back in his country house, his meeting with the mysterious Louise gets him back on his feet. While they both feed a desire of revenge against the Duke, they decide to create the very first restaurant in France.

France, XVIIIe siècle. Le prestige d’une maison noble dépend avant tout de la qualité de sa table. À l’aube de la Révolution française, la gastronomie est encore la prérogative des aristocrates. Quand le talentueux cuisinier Manceron est renvoyé par le duc de Chamfort, il perd le goût de la cuisine. De retour dans son pays sa rencontre avec la mystérieuse Louise le remet sur pied. Nourrissant tous les deux un désir de vengeance envers le duc, ils décident de créer le tout premier restaurant de France.
