It’s the end of summer, and for incoming sixth grader Nathan, his life couldn’t be more pathetic that it already is. For one thing, the name of his new teacher, Mrs. Swindle, sounds ominous enough; then there’s the fact that he would be sitting close to the official school bully while his two closest friends are going to be in the other class. To top it all, we would be consigned to wearing those despicable clothes from the thrift store—again. It is not like Nathan doesn’t understand how most families in their community—including his own—are suffering from the economic downturn. It’s just the harsh realities of his young life are getting into him and he couldn’t do anything about it. Well, it appears to be so, until a strange man gives Nathan a box of fortune cookies one day. When Nathan discovers that the fortune cookies are way more than they seem, her realizes, ironically, that the opposite side of the fence could also be a daunting proposition in life.
If you think McDonald's is the most ubiquitous restaurant experience in America, consider that there are more Chinese restaurants in America than McDonalds, Burger Kings, and Wendys combined.

Erin, a non-Chinese teenager living in San Francisco's Chinatown, ghostwrites an online advice column, but when a reply to her ex-best friend backfires, Erin's carefully constructed life takes a crazy spin.
When David Douglas puts his family-owned Chinese restaurant on the auction block, his rebellious younger daughter, Sue, recruits the help of Will, the restaurant manager, to keep her grandmother from being forced from the restaurant and sent to a retirement home. The only way for Sue to conjure up millions of dollars in a few weeks is to set up a bogus on-line company to enter the auction in a bidding war with the giant corporation intent on buying the restaurant’s property. To raise the seed money to join the auction, Sue begins writing fortune cookie messages for her friends. When all of the messages come true, hundreds of fortune seekers descend on the restaurant all wanting to have their fortunes told. Under intense pressure, Sue claims she’s not the fortune teller, just the transcriber. That fabrication doesn’t go well when desperate people conclude that Sue’s grandmother must be the real fortune teller. Sue’s hesitant accomplice, Will, the restaurant manager, is the voice of reason and caution, but he’s no match for Sue’s determination to build a new restaurant and save Grandma. Although Sue’s heart is in the right place, her schemes result in constant chaos and misfortune.
