Zinos (Adam Bousdoukos), a German of Greek descent, opened a restaurant in Hamburg called "Soul Kitchen". He recently encountered a serious financial crisis and could not make ends meet. To make matters worse, Zinos also suffered a herniated disc in his lumbar spine due to an accident. His emotional life is also in trouble. His girlfriend Nadine (Pheline Roggan) is a journalist who decided to work in Shanghai. His younger brother Illias (Moritz Bleibtreu) has just been paroled from prison and came to work in Zino's restaurant. Because of physical problems, Zino can only hire another chef Shayn (Birol Ünel), but Shayn's new dishes are not welcomed by old customers, and the restaurant's income is getting worse. Zinos' girlfriend also decided to abandon him and be with a person she met by chance in Shanghai. How can Zinos, who has many problems, make a comeback? Can Soul Kitchen continue to operate?
