In Makassar, “Coto Haji Matto” is very famous and crowded with visitors. One day, Daeng Sangkala intends to buy the “Coto Haji Matto” stall, renovate it, and develop it into a franchise business. Haji Matto rejects it and kicks Daeng Sangkala out of his stall. A few weeks later, Daeng Sangkala returns with his wife Lina and their children to open a konro restaurant "Konro Daeng Sangkala". It is located right in a former empty shophouse directly opposite Haji Matto's stall. The maneuver of “Konro Daeng Sangkala” succeeded in making Haji Matto's loyal customers move to Daeng Sangkala. The feud heats up as their children Rizal and Sara start to get closer to each other even though Rizal actually has a special mission from Daeng Sangkala.
