Season 1 of What Zabb Man! premiered on April 9, 2022.

Poon is a hardworking guy. When his parents passed away, he quit school and started working to provide for himself and his little brother. Poon opened a somtum stall in front of his rented house but could barely make ends meet. That was until one of his customers recruited him as a chef for a hotel owned by his friend.

The hotel owner, Tian, is a young and hot-headed businessman. They had actually met each other before and they had a bad impression of each other. When Poon found out that Tian was the hotel owner he immediately refused to work there. However, Tian challenged him to do the job and, not wanting to be looked down upon, Poon decided to accept the position.

Tian fell in love with Poon's food once he tasted it but didn't want to lose face by admitting that to Poon, so he told Poon that the food was horrible. The two always fought when they saw each other. But after some time, their daily spats grew into something special.
