Plot[]
Uptight French chef Sara Westbrook (Teri Polo) gets fired up when her upscale café, Chez Varenne becomes overshadowed by a new restaurant, the Five Alarm Grill moving in next door run by a group of rowdy firemen.
Led by handsome former firefighter Gill Callahan (James Patrick Stuart) and his friend Danny (Rockmond Dunbar), their restaurant becomes a success while Sara and her pastry chef Patsy (Romy Rosemont) are struggling to bring in customers.
Sara suddenly softens up when she meets Gill's 10-year-old daughter Hannah (Bailee Madison) who she can't help but take under her wing when she learns Hannah is growing up without a mom. Ignoring the obvious tension between her dad and Sara, Hannah is soon playing matchmaker.
As Gill and Sara slowly begin to stir up romance, their relationship is tested once again when a local food critic gets in the mix.
Can the couple resist the temptation to compete with each other, or will the heat of competition drive them apart?
