Paik Jong Won’s challenge to become a top restaurateur around the world is not over. Paik Jong Won and his crew are dropped off in a new country once again. This time, they must open and run a restaurant in France, a country known for its gourmet cuisine. Actor Yoon Si Yoon, the “Baking King,” joins the team and harmonizes with the previous members. While French people are accustomed to multi-course meals, they introduce a Korean-style steak served as a single course, and they offer alcohol-fermented bread in the country of baguette. In a place where communication is difficult and the culture is different, will they be able to appeal to the French diners? Will their tactics work on the picky diners?
