Yaemori Arisu runs a small restaurant named Alice’s Kitchen. She has autism spectrum disorder, which leads her to be stubborn at times and generally poor at communicating with other people. Her condition also allows her to have a phenomenal memory. She became interested in chemistry due to her single father, Yaemori Shingo, who teaches chemistry at a university. With her vast knowledge of chemistry, she understands nutrients and the cooking process from a scientific viewpoint. Her cooking skills are extraordinary, and her food always pleases. At her restaurant, she works with her childhood friend Mitsumata Kazusa. Even though the restaurant is quite popular, they are the only two employees who work there. While Alice cooks dishes in the kitchen, Mitsumata is in charge of greeting and serving food to the customers. One day, a young man named Sakae Kosei appears at the restaurant and asks to work there as a live-in part-time worker. Since then, Yaemori Arisu has experienced a big change in her life.

Reviews
Great chemistry, hampered by underwhelming mystery reveal
The show is a mix of romance and mystery. The FL is high functioning autistic while ML is a son of a criminal wrongly blamed by company politics and someone who also took his own life. The two leads had their life intertwined because by fate, they are also victims. of the company politics.From the get-go, I think both of their chemistry are really amazing. And I really love the way they communicate and try to understand one another. Their family/company mystery is also a nice touch to the story because it makes the drama not like your typical romance show and it also keeps me invested to continue watching. But I felt that the mystery is quite anti climatic in the end and was quite annoyed by that (Shall not spoil it). Not to say it’s a bad show, just that you shouldn’t have high hopes when the truth is revealed.
