Replacing Chef Chico Season 1

Lovestruck sous-chef Ella tries to help save the restaurant where she works — until devastating news threatens everything.

Ella's shift starts in disaster as she clashes with the charismatic new consultant Raymond and serves an unusually critical VIP.

Two orders of adobo spark a competition between Ella and veteran chef Carlon, while all the staffers place bets behind their backs.

After running into Chico's fiancee at the hospital, a downcast Ella tries to focus on her first day as head chef at Hain — only to face a power outage.

Things look bleak for Hain, but a risky gamble could turn things around. Ella has an emotional talk with Raymond. An unexpected visitor shocks the staff.

Tensions run high in the kitchen as an influencer couple and a covert food critic arrive. Ella considers her options as Raymond reveals his plans.

A couple get married at the restaurant, forcing Carlon into an awkward position. Ella's turn as head chef receives a glowing review online.

Raymond and Chico give Ella dueling proposals: to start a restaurant in Singapore or continue fighting for Hain's survival.
