Reviews
Love is worth fighting for and is too beautiful to be kept a secret
Replacing Chef Chico is delightfully serene. On the outside it just looks like a simple wrap but once you bite into it you’ll be hit by the burst of flavors. The way this series deals with serious issues in a calm and quiet manner is simply beautiful.This is an intricately woven tale with multiple heartwarming and empowering stories of customers all the while replacing the chef Chico. A well-written screenplay. Also Ella’s costumes deserves a special mention.
The acting is so good. I’m still not familiar with the names but everyone did well. Especially the actress who portrayed Wena is a scene stealer.
The soul of this series lies in the music. The songs, voices and lyrics are absolutely lovely.
The only issue I had with this is its incredibly short. Given a few more episodes it’d have delved deeply and would’ve been really wholesome. Romance felt a bit rushed.
Anyway love this mouth-watering, thought-provoking tale of love and life. Hope there’ll be a second season. Can’t wait to experience what Hain will bring to the table.
