The spirit of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is re-animated into a young Chinese line cook, Me Li, who works at a Dim Sum palace in Chinatown.
His co-workers begin to notice the musicality of his wok skills and he becomes a pop superstar, recording classics such as Beef and Broccoli in A Minor, The Magic Prawn, Sweet and Sour Suite and of course Chopsticks 2020 - The Remix.
On his way to the Grammy Awards at MSG, the local mob, led by notorious gangster, Sal Ierri, decides to kidnap Me Li and ransom him to his manager, General Tso Parker. Little does Sal know that Me is worth more to the General dead than alive.
