- Gallo and Chuy are two Mexican immigrants who work in the multi-racial kitchen of the Paradise Café in Los Angeles. In the middle of the ceaseless clatter of the busy kitchen, Gallo is rehearsing heroically handing in his notice, with which he hopes to get back his youth, his dignity and even to win the love of Susan, an American waitress. But nothing is as it seems in the Paradise Café, where reality becomes fiction and fiction reality.
