Aftertaste

When his latest outburst goes viral, volatile celebrity chef Easton West flees back to his hometown and seeks to reinvent himself through an unlikely partnership with his 19-year-old pastry wunderkind niece.

Former celebrity bad boy chef Easton West returns to his family home in the Adelaide Hills to start a restaurant with his niece, repair his family, and work out his place in a modern world.

Easton and Diana set to clean Jim's hoard of junk to make way for their restaurant, but the old man refuses to go gently; Easton sends Diana off in search of inspiration for her contribution to the menu.

As the restaurant prepares to open to industry and press, Easton descends into full control freak mode and pushes Diana to serve a dessert not included on the menu.

In the aftermath of the polarizing opening night of JUNE, Easton seeks enlightenment in the form of hallucinogens, while Diana tries to finally reach an understanding with her mother Denise.

Though the restaurant finds success, when the council threatens to shut down their barely legal operation, Easton contemplates selling out and Diana contemplates bailing altogether.
