Aftertaste - Episode Guide

Having burned all his bridges in restaurants across Europe, volatile celebrity chef Easton West finds himself with one more chance in a high-end Shanghai restaurant. But when opening night turns into a pig-slinging disaster, the subsequent social media tsunami washes Easton ashore in the Adelaide Hills. Arriving like a pariah to a dysfunctional family he abandoned 30 years previously, he finds his outspoken 19-year-old pastry cook niece, Diana, is the only person who shows any interest in his return. Diana represents everything he's not – young, female and with her finger on the pulse – so Easton takes her under his wing in an effort to crawl his way back to relevance.

Former celebrity bad boy chef, Easton West, returns to his family home in the Adelaide Hills to start a restaurant with his niece, repair his family, and work out his place in a modern world.    

Easton and Diana set about cleaning out Jim's hoard to make way for their restaurant - but the old man isn't making it easy. Easton sends Diana off in search of inspiration for her contribution to the menu.

As the restaurant prepares to open to industry and press, Easton has gone full control-freak, which pushes Diana to serve a dessert not on the menu.

In the aftermath of the polarising opening night of JUNE, Easton seeks enlightenment in the form of hallucinogens, while Diana tries to finally reach an understanding with her mother, Denise.

The restaurant is a flourishing success - but when the council threatens to shut down their barely legal operation, Easton contemplates selling out and Diana contemplates bailing all together.

Diana returns from London for Denise and Brett's wedding and struggles to prove to her new beau Harry that her family are as insane as she says they are - especially since Easton seems to have discovered his Zen state.

Diana must find a way to finish her menu for the London restaurant despite Easton's toddler-tanty level resistance to fulfilling their community service obligations.

The family spend a confronting night with June, trying to find out why she's back after all these years - but only succeed in picking at the scabs of their own fragile relationships.

Like a scrumptious souffle, can Easton and Diana rise to the challenge of creating something spectacular for the soup kitchen fundraiser out of literal trash and reclaim their chef mojos?

A delivery of imperfect vegies from Margot forces Easton to embrace his newfound status as an eco-warrior, while Diana's menu causes issues for Harry.

June skips out on the Wests again - and when a real estate agent comes knocking, Easton, Denise and Diana have no choice but to go after her to stop her from selling the home. (Final)
