Kongsi Raya
In a match made in culinary heaven, Jack (Wilson Lee), a Chinese chef who's in line to succeed his family's restaurant, and Sharifah (Qasrina Karim), a TV producer, are in love, but they must first break the barrier of cultural differences between their families. Their efforts turn sour and make their long-feuding chef fathers challenge each other to a cook-off in a live TV cooking competition showdown. Can they mend and persuade their fathers to come in terms?
Kongsi Raya premieres on Netflix on April 27, 2022. Stream it here.
