Maravan, un réfugié tamoul travaille au Huwyler, un restaurant suisse fréquenté par le monde de la presse et de la finance. Au Sri Lanka, Maravan était un cuisinier prometteur spécialisé dans les préparations ayurvédiques. En Suisse, il s'exerce à la cuisine moléculaire, en tentant chez lui des expériences sophistiquées. L'emprunt d'un ustensile de cuisine lui vaut d'être renvoyé du restaurant.--[Memento].

Work Description
As the financial crisis tightens its grip on Europe, the gilded world of Zurich's leading restaurant, Chez Huwyler, seems immune to plunging stock markets and collapsing banks. But behind the scenes, even the rarefied world of haute cuisine is feeling the bite and so Maravan - a Tamil dishwasher and undiscovered culinary genius - and Andrea - a stunningly beautiful waitress - find themselves out of a job and needing to find another way to survive.

But even culinary magic can't ward off recession and when their new company begins to struggle, they are forced to enter into a much more unsavoury business, plunging them deep into an underworld where murder and sex feed otherwise unquenchable thirsts ...
