After returning from a trip with her husband, Minde Wu (played by Chung King-hin), cooking mentor Xiaoli Lu (played by Billie Chung) discovers a series of changes at home. Their youngest daughter, Cainei Wu (played by Florence Fu), is cohabiting with a colleague, Dartan Liu (played by Anthony Hung), who is suspected of being gay. Xiaomei Lu (played by Maggie Ng), the divorced younger sister, has an ambiguous relationship with the tenant, Jia You (played by Longqing Mai), and her ex-husband. Minde was forced into early retirement and is idle at home while Xiaoli seizes a golden opportunity to become the host of a TV cooking show. Despite these family upheavals, this all-capable housewife remains undaunted, responding with patience and extra love to resolve conflicts. However, her husband always seems out of touch, constantly opposing her until Xiaoli finally devises a clever plan to deal with him... *Healthy Cooking Housewife* fully captures the various emotions women experience as mothers, wives, and daughters when facing family, gender relations, and marriage from different perspectives.
