The acting is well displayed by all, but the script has so many loopholes and disconnect scenes. Espl taking an adaptation shouldn't have brought such flaws. I watched it only bcz of the music score and the SUPER DETAILED face expressions by actor Lin shen.

This is about a CEO who falls slowly for a much younger woman, a chef, through their mutual appreciation of food. Although I fail to understand how stone cold (or reheated) special friend rice can change a CEO decision to buy or not to buy a Hotel. Like Really?

The couple are so poles apart, that it is a slow realisation and acceptance that the couple really have feelings for each other before they go any further.

They are at completely different social and class levels and have to meet and learn about each others friends and family.

The drama focuses more on HER cohorts who are entertaining down to earth, rowdy, lively and genuine, her grandfather has a food stall. His are the usual stiff necked business people, with the possible exception of his driver, particularly his mother who is determined that he should not marry "down". Throw in a semi neer do well younger brother and it speeds up.

The ML is very good and the FL has some way to go but came across as genuine with a huge amount of potential. She would be fabulous in a historical drama.

The script could do with a little/lot more work. The filming of the food was clearly given priority and done very well but over all it a good drama to pass the time when bored at home sick in bed.

Yes it is a HEA ending.

Before watching this, I watched the movie based on the same novel by Lan Bai Se: This Is Not What I Expected 2017. This tv series is a lot different from the movie but mostly ok for a romantic comedy drama. What was unsatisfying the most is the food, which looked rather unappetizing. I mean, for example who could be impressed by the fried rice that's gone cold, or reheated??

Gu Sheng Nan. (Zhao Lu Si) showcases her true potential as a chef when an aggravating situation, and ill-fated misunderstanding, positions her against her prospective boss, the sharp-tongued CEO, Lu Jin(Lin Yu Shen).

Lu Jin, a prodigious entrepreneur, sets out to condemn the Zijing Hotel, changing his mind when he serendipitously comes across one of Sheng Nan's dishes. United by their passion for food, this improbable duo forges an unforeseen connection that takes them to an unanticipated destination.

In this romantic tale, you will find an age gap romance that is characterized by perfect chemistry, quick-witted one-liners, dramatic love rivals, obstacles, and everyday life. There's no better way to spend a rainy day than by watching this series with a bowl of popcorn in hand.

This is a perfect score for a romantic comedy. It is highly entertaining, fast paced, never a dull moment, hilarious especially with Zhao Lusi as leading lady . She is bubbly, talented and a joy to watch. The romance is good and believable despite the age gap between the two leads. In fact, the age gap is deliberate as it was discussed in the series itself. These two leads have strong chemistry and are sweet and fun to watch together. The supporting cast is interesting to watch too. Love the creativity of cooking and food included in the series. This series scores on entertainment level and provides lots of laughter, romance and is everything a true romcom should be.
