Shark Fin Soup.  Drunken Crab.  Black Feather Chicken.  Po Mama's Chinese cuisine evokes the joy of cooking and her son, Richie Po has the palette to prove it.  When Po Mama dies and passes her secrets onto him, he reunites with Gloria B, a "Soul Food" chef in the making.  Together they use Po Mama's TV cooking tapes to discover a deeper understanding of food, culture and the recipe for friendship.
