Cooking My Way Back to Love is an 86-episode American vertical series that dropped on August 29, 2025 on the ReelShort app. The plot setup is quite similar to Hellfire Chef which I posted yesterday, that is a top chef fell into homelessness, then a kind restaurateur took him in and gave him a job, and so on… However I felt that this one is less crazy than Hellfire Chef but still, let’s say, Iron Chef gone bonkers, LOL… This series stars Adam Daniel as Leon and Christine Gonzalez as Ada…
Chef Leon Kennedy, once the “King of Cooking,” fell apart after his wife died in a tragic car accident. His deep depression led him to fall into homelessness, losing everything except his beloved dog, Dante. A restaurant owner takes him in, giving him a job, not knowing who he is. Working in the kitchen, he faces the abuse of the executive sous chef (Bryant), who belittles and disrespects him. Leon tries to keep his head down, but when a nefarious businessman (William) threatens the restaurant, Leon has to break out the skills and artistry that made him a legendary chef. The restoration of his glory and joy is shortlived, however, as the spiteful chef Bryant defames him, and the resentful William kills his beloved dog. Enduring ups, downs, and devastation once again, the aggrieved Chef Leon picks up his chef’s knife, hungry for revenge.
