Ein trostlicher Roman, der an kalten Tagen warmt wie eine gute Nudelsuppe. Jeden Morgen, noch bevor die Sonne aufgeht, bereitet Ah Hock die beste Nudelsuppe der Stadt zu. Anis, Kreuzkummel, Galgantwurzel und das rauchige Aroma des Holzofens sind nur einige der geheimen Zutaten des Rezepts, das von Generation zu Generation weitergegeben wird. Doch Ah Hock ist alter geworden, die Suppe gelingt ihm nicht mehr so wie einst und sein Sohn hat kein Interesse, den Familienbetrieb fortzufuhren. Vor Jahren hat er seine malaysische Heimat verlassen, um im fernen Hongkong die Kunst der Sushi-Zubereitung zu erlernen. Als Ah Hocks sechzigster Geburtstag naht, kehrt sein Sohn endlich zuruck. Doch bald brechen zwischen den beiden alte Konflikte auf. Denn wahrend Ah Hock darauf bedacht ist, dass alles bleibt, wie es immer war, traumt Wei Ming von neuen kulinarischen Kreationen. Als ein Geschaftsmann droht, Ah Hocks Lebenswerk zu zerstoren, mussen Vater und Sohn sich fragen, was wirklich zahlt.
