Adriano met Stacey in 2009. She wrote him a simple letter asking if she could make him a cake to distract her from the chemo she was going through. As soon as Adriano received the letter, he flew to Stacey’s home and spent two days cooking with her – it was the start of an enduring friendship.
Twelve months on and Stacey’s in for a real surprise – she’s been flown to a special TAFE event in Canberra. Little does she realise, Adriano is also there teaching apprentices how to cook. It’s a reunion full of tears and laughter. Adriano decides to take Stacey up on her offer to spend a few days chilling out at her beach house, which comes complete with an outdoor kitchen overlooking the beach. Together, they cook up beautiful fresh food. Meanwhile, back in Sydney, the lab has gone into overdrive trying to keep up with the summer demand, but storm clouds are forming.
