A portrait of Javier Urondo and his discomforting, sharp and provocative take on the act of serving food. Paco Urondo, his father, was a distinguished poet and political activist, murdered by the military dictatorship in 1976. This is the story of Javier, of how he maintains the Urondo Bar, a restaurant in a Buenos Aires suburb, from where he lends new meaning to a legacy and a belonging and turns them into an act of resistance. A film about food as a source of culture and family.

After falling in love with Vietnamese cuisine during a life-changing trip abroad, Jerald, a self-taught chef from small-town Texas, arrives in New York City with one goal: to open his own restaurant. Juggling odd jobs and secretly perfecting recipes in a basement kitchen, he's running out of time and money. When he meets Nhung, their unlikely alliance sparks a bold culinary journey. From improvised street hustles to a hidden speakeasy, they fight to turn Jerald's dream into reality.

One day, Tetsuro Maeda (Tetsu) leaves home, at the foot of Mount Anboto, makes his way through the forests of the Atxondo Valley and arrives at his restaurant, Txispa. As he works, he recalls his life, since he was born in Tokyo, 40 years ago, until today, when his restaurant boasts a Michelin star. Surrounded by the scents and flavours of Anboto, a mythical mountain for the Basques, Tetsu thinks about his dishes, lending them shape and colour to ensure that those eating them may taste the breathtaking landscape visible from its summit.
