In the series premiere Antonia and Nestor visit Gritz N' Wafflez, a once-thriving ghost kitchen whose rapid rise led to an expansion that outpaced its foundation.

Chef Antonia will step in to lead a high-stakes undercover intervention, deploying trusted sous chef Nestor inside the kitchen to uncover the root causes of the restaurant's decline.

In a race against the clock, the transformation will test whether Gritz N' Wafflez can reclaim its identity and survive.
