A situation that could have amused the chef if the future of the restaurant was not at stake. Between Sandrine, the boss who has completely given up, and her sister Aline, whose character and very familiar attitude will not fail to irritate the chef, Philippe Etchebest will have to redouble his efforts to try to save this restaurant that is on the verge of exploding!
