Offering everything from Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes to exquisite desserts, this establishment is a temple of gastronomy praised by countless critics and media outlets. Under the leadership of the CEO, Yamato Hojo, six adopted children live together in a mansion in a high-end residential area. Five of them, Yamato's disciples and Guest's adoptive siblings, support the kitchen as brilliant young chefs heading their respective departments.
However, only Guest, who was taken in by Yamato after losing parents at a young age, lacks their culinary talent. In the shadow of the glamorous kitchen's light, the assigned role is nothing but daily chores like dishwashing and cleaning.
