Synopsis
Tired of being bossed around, Jean-Jacques, a talented cook quits his job to start up his own restaurant.
He does a business course run by Claude, a frustrated writer. Lacking the necessary capital to get started, Jean-Jacques realizes that his dream may come to nothing. He stresses out, can’t sleep, starts taking tranquilizers mixed with alcohol.
What with the dubious advice handed out by his new friend Claude, and supported by Noisette, his air hostess girlfriend, who is never around to help, will Jean-Jacques ever manage to open his own restaurant?
