Off the Menu

I enjoyed this movie. It was predictable, I admit. But to see the beautiful views of Taos and surrounding areas I would watch it again. I liked the way that green chili was the most important ingredient too. Very New Mexican. ... from a long time resident.

Don't know what he sees in her...Opposites do attract. No surprise, he finally sweeps her off her feet, none to soon. Funny guy, a beautiful Woman with a wonderful daughter. What could go wrong.

They all make the best of things in the end. If life was only so simple...

Like each Hallmark romance, the word "nice" is the first definion in mind of viewer. Maybe, more for food, mother, daughter of the feminine main character. So, all predictable. And, in different doses, seductive. The only problem - why Joel Flanagan seems so...stupid ? Sure, Santino Fontana gives a decent work but the traits of his character are too...naive. Dania Ramirez is just inspired option for the role of Javiera. But, no doubts, the clues are Makenzie Moss and Maria Conchita Alonso.

Like the Milagro Beanfield War, the scenery steals the show. .

Off The Menu is smartly told story of two people falling love. The somewhat irresistible chef is overcome by the charms of the outsider, but he falls under her spell as well. Off The Menu isn't perfect, but it plays on the basic human themes of emotion and love. A very nicely told story that couples will enjoy.
