The Stew of Life

Upon returning from a trip with her husband Ng Man Tak, cookery teacher Lo Siu Lai is shocked to find that her little daughter Ng Choi Ni has started cohabiting with a homosexually inclined colleague Lau Tat Yan while her divorced sister Lo Siu Mei is seemingly caught up in a love triangle between tenant Yau Kai and her ex-husband.
Tak is forced to retire early and stays at home all day with nothing to do. Lai, on the other hand, is lucky enough to have the opportunity to host a culinary show on TV. Everything seems to have happened too fast but this does not leave Lai frustrated and accursed. Instead she tries to get round every problem with even more patience and dedication, which however is not appreciated by Tak. The bickering continues until Lai eventually thinks of a good way to tackle Tak.
