October 30, 2003

Mr. John Steinbrun:

This letter shall serve as the formal confirmation of an amendment to the terms
of your employment agreement with Overhill Farms, Inc. (the "Company") as Senior
Vice President - Chief Financial Officer. The terms of your employment, which
commenced on April 1, 2003, are set forth in the letter agreement dated April 3,
2003 executed by the Company and countersigned by you. This letter shall serve
as an agreement between you and the Company to modify and amend certain
provisions of your employment agreement contained in the April 3, 2003 letter
agreement as specifically set forth herein.

Your initial salary was $225,000 per year, payable in semi-monthly or other
installments in accordance with the Company's practice for other executive
employees. Effective as of November 1, 2003, your salary will increase to a
total of $250,000 per year, payable in the same manner. In addition to your
initial salary, you were eligible to receive a discretionary bonus based on your
performance, as determined by the Board of Directors. In this regard, please be
advised that the Board of Directors intends to establish an incentive based
bonus program in which you would participate. Such incentive based bonus program
may compensate you with cash or options to purchase common stock of the Company,
in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.

The remaining terms and conditions of your employment with the Company will
remain unchanged as set forth in the April 3, 2003 letter agreement, including,
without limitation, your automobile allowance of $600 per month and your two
weeks paid vacation per year. Upon termination of your employment you will be
entitled to receive all accrued compensation owed you by the Company as of the
date of termination that has not been paid, if any, including monetary
compensation, accrued but unused vacation and sick leave pay, any reimbursement
owed to you by the Company for reasonable and necessary business expenses
previously incurred, all amounts vested as of the date of termination pursuant
to any Company Profit Sharing Plan and all other benefits not specified herein
to which you would be entitled as of date of termination. Your performance will
be subject to annual reviews on the anniversary of the November 1, 2003
modification date, which will form the basis of any future salary increases or
other incentives the Company may offer you.

If you accept the conditions of this modification to your current employment
agreement, the term of your employment will be extended through April 30, 2005.
The Company may elect to terminate your employment, without cause, prior to
April 30, 2005 by written notice, provided that the Company delivers to you with
such notice, a check equal to the amount of your then current salary for the
remainder of the period from the date of such notice through April 30, 2005.

Your employment relationship with the Company will be governed by and
interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California. The terms of
the April 3, 2003 letter agreement, as modified by this writing, when
countersigned by you and returned to the Company, will constitute the entire
agreement in effect between you and the Company regarding your employment, as of
the date of this letter.

                                                     Sincerely,

                                                     Overhill Farms, Inc.
