Plot summary
Amanda inherits her late mother's restaurant, but lacks her mother's ability to cook. The restaurant is failing when Amanda comes across an enchanted crab at the local market. The crab uses its magical powers to transform her into a superb chef. As a result, not only is Amanda able to save her restaurant, but she is also chosen to replace a temperamental chef who walks out on the opening night of a fabulous department store's new restaurant. Assisted by the crab, Amanda stuns the jaded restaurant critics and saves the career of Tom Bartlett (the hotel manager), her newfound romantic interest.
