What happens when a Sudanese woman in Australia starts a cooking school for the refugee men and asks them to prepare a feast for their biggest critics - the elders' women? Women in Sudan often do not allow men into the kitchen because some believe their penises might burn over the cooking fires.

Ayen Kuol, a Sudanese health worker decides to challenge years of tradition and start a cooking school for African men. The generations battle it out for their right to be in the kitchen and Ayen eventually throws down the gauntlet. The boys must cook a feast for the elder women.
