Chance Oliveida is a Brazilian immigrant who owns a green cleaning company. She toils away in her company as she dreams of traveling the world to write her cooking travelogue. Chance secretly keeps a notebook filled with her recipes, food drawings, and musings on life.
Juliette Bonet is an entrepreneur who has the accoutrements of the good life: success, money to blow, and beauty. Life is good. However, her love life could be better. Not that she has a lack of male suitors. It is just that she is at an age in which she is questioning what she really wants next in Mr. Right. Then along comes Chance who forces her to reconsider her options.
Their paths cross when one of Chance's workers does not show up for work. What ensues is a tale of self discovery, passion, and their love of food.
