Stephen meets 50-year-old Caroline from Newry. Caroline has been struggling with weight gain since she started the menopause, and with her work in a care home and looking after three boisterous grandsons, she often turns to crisps and snacks to keep her energy levels up. She tells Stephen that she is a terrible cook and would love to be more confident in the kitchen.
While she loves to walk in the beautiful hills in and around Newry and Carlingford Lough with her pals, her recent weight gain is affecting Caroline's joints and she's worried that if she doesn't change her ways, she may lose the ability to do this and remain active and sociable. For the first time, this bubbly sociable woman feels the wind has been taken out of her sails. As her weight has increased, her self-esteem has sadly plummeted. Can a visit to the kitchen with Stephen help restore it?
No better chef to try to help Caroline than the highly respected chef Shauna Froydenlund, who has returned to her native Derry armed with the skills honed from being head chef in a Marcus Wareing London restaurant. She has so many ideas and tastes for Caroline and Stephen to try. But when Shauna's dish turns out to be Caroline's food hell, there's the potential for things in the kitchen to go terribly wrong...
