Dating can be tough when you nerd out over barbecue. Kenta, a practical pitmaster, looks for a grill-friend in Chihiro, an aloof and faultless business babe…or is she? Scared of being rejected for who they really are, the two of them find comfort in food and each other…and all is well until Kenta must transfer away. With their developing relationship at steak, Chihiro proposes they tie the knot and they marry for better or wurst. Winging a long-distance marriage is one thing, but here’s the rub—they barely know each other! It’s a rare marriage where all the awkwardness of dating meets a sizzling passion for grilling!
The grill team grows when fellow transplant Mochizuki collabs with Chihiro for a festival. The handsome hunk and computer wiz is a little bit of a loner, but Chihiro’s good will and Kenta’s cooking skill might just be what it takes to draw him out of his shell. Later, the whole crew’s invited for Kenta’s meaty birthday bash—one where his friends (and the flavors) move him to tears! But the real cherry on top is the surprise Chihiro has for him at the end of the day.
