A single mother of two, Gemmalyn (Katrina) works hard to grow her small eatery (carinderia) for her children. She is gifted as a natural cook and can come up with simple recipes that leave her customers returning for more. One of her popular dishes is "Tortang talong with tuna," or eggplant omelet with tuna. Through her small business, Gemmalyn meets Jonathan (Martin). At first, Jonathan is just one of Gemmalyn's frequent customers. They become close and eventually fall for each other. Jonathan does not mind that Gemmalyn is a single parent with two kids - something that the latter is truly grateful for. But as it turns out, Jonathan comes from a rich family. When Jonathan introduces Gemmalyn to them, they immediately object to their relationship. They trample on Gemmalyn's being and try to keep her away from Jonathan. Jonathan is determined to fight for Gemmalyn, but to what extent can the two lovers endure all the pain?
