Plot Summary: Najika is a great cook and she likes to make meals for the people she loves. But something is missing from her life. When she was a child, she met a boy who touched her heart-and now she's determined to find him. The only clue Najika has is a silver spoon that leads her to the prestigious Seika Academy. Attending Seika will be a challenge. Every kid at the school has a special talent, and the girls in Najika's class think she doesn't deserve to be there. But Sora and Daishi, two popular brothers who barely speak to eachother, recognize Najika's cooking for what it is-magical. Is either boy Najika's mysterious prince...
