Plot

The series depicts the lives of dessert stall owner Ah Soon and his wife, who struggle to keep their business afloat as a new business competitor moves into the coffee shop. At home, their daughter Pei Shi aspires to be a singer despite their objections. Family tension runs high as Ah Soon's sister-in-law, Kym, moves in with them and supports Pei Shi's singing aspirations.

As the Soons grapple with their problems, their community also faces its own challenges. How will they support one another through life's ups and downs, and what will they learn from their experiences?
