Love's Sweet Recipe

I tried to sit through all of this without starting to read Daily Telegraph article comments but it was impossible.

It was as slow as molasses with absolutely no chemistry between the two lead actors and a really boring script. Neither actor was very good but worse together.

The story of Courtney running the family business was absurd since she was never there cooking or serving or anything to do with it other than trying out some fiddley new fusion dishes. She just kept reading old recipes to remind her why she fell in love with the cooking we never see her do other than in her own little kitchen. I suppose she has a staff to deal with the restaurant since we see nothing of the hectic brutal schedule of running a restaurant i'd havd expected. In addition she's trying to impress the judges of an upcoming competition.

She's also reading her father's old book "of love".

Jake, an old beau athlete, comes back to town after an injury and surprises her that he can bake. They start to work together as he saves to own his own bakery one day.

There is absolutely no energy in this production. It feels completely flat and if there is supposed to be any romance brewing I think they forgot to put the kettle on.
