One Parisian night a woman disappears in the middle of the night, leaving behind the man she loves. Sixty years later, the search begins....In 1942 French chef Sylvie was sent to Paris as part of the resistance, while German soldier Christoph has enlisted only to save his sister. As the two begin to discover the people beneath their uniforms, the rest of the world, and the war raging on, fades away. But Christoph can never know Sylvie's identity, which might end up destroying him. Decades later, Christoph's health is declining, and his memories are fading. Having returned to Germany to help her mentor, Christopher's young protege Julia discovers a book filled with 'the recipes of us' and sets out to cook each dish in the hope of reviving Christoph. As his memories resurface, Julia begins her own quest to find the woman he lost to the war. Can Julia discover the truth behind Sylvie and Christoph, or will it be too late?
