38 parts Ongoing After her mid-season rise to online fame, Shuvee Etrata, a lively and slightly chaotic content creator, is on a break from showbiz. Looking to reconnect with real stories and real food, she stumbles into a tucked-away carinderia in Quezon City-"Lola Pacita's Lutong Bahay", now run by a quiet, no-nonsense young man: Ralph de Leon.
Shuvee instantly falls in love... with the food.
The adobo? Life-changing. The sinigang? Like a hug from the heavens. The cook though? Cold as ice.
Ralph, having taken over his late grandmother's carinderia, is struggling to keep the business afloat while preserving its old-school charm. He's grumpy, practical, and very territorial in the kitchen. The last thing he needs is a vlogger invading his space and pointing a camera at every ulam.
But after one of Shuvee's spontaneous food reels goes viral, customers start pouring in. Ralph begrudgingly allows her to keep filming-on one condition: she has to help in the kitchen.
(No vlogging without value!)
Cue: chaotic kitchen disasters, hilarious apron fights ("Bakit isa lang 'to?!"), awkward close proximity while chopping onions, and moments where flour turns into flirting.
