Long story short, girl wants to confess to her first love, she gets emotional, drunk and then ends up meeting the ML and the rest is history because it was crazy how they met, it's crazy how they come across each other again and everything that happened in between was crazy but the way the writers put it; it's kind of light hearted lol which is cool with me. I adoreee supportive families so the relationship between the workers, the ML sister, the SML aka the ML best friend, it all was just very *chefs kiss*
The main characters were wicked sweet like you didn't need to try what they were baking because you already got cavities from watching LMFAO but the acting was great tbh, the MC had chemistry, the best friend and sister, the workers/friends and don't get me started on the boy that played Rui Rui because that little guy is going to make it big.
Music was great, I loved it, very fitting and just a great sound.
It was so cliché and sweet that I think 1 time was good enough in my opinion but don't be opposed to watching it at all; it's actually a great show so I would definitely recommend watching it.

Pretty cute! Does the job and Love the Little Guy.
This was an EASY super rom-com romance. If you want all of the typical troupe minus the silly misunderstandings and just a bunch of cuteness, then this is the perfect drama.At 16 episodes and 30 minutes each, it's a very fast and easy drama to watch. I even liked that they threw in there a secondary and minor 3rd couple. So you know there isn't much angst with the main couple. I picked up the drama because I love the little kid from Unforgettable Love and I loved that they got a child dubber (instead of an adult female, trying to be a kid), it truly makes a difference in watching.
The drama is about the main leads taking care of a 5-6 year old together, temporary. And of course, they have to live together! The drama, as I said before is pretty cute. He makes deserts and she's a blogger. I'm a big foodie, so it was fun to watch them eat all the pretty confections.
At times the drama can be a little over the top and slightly slow, like the ML being scared of the dark (it has been done before) or the female lead gets drunk and accidentally fall kiss on the ML. But I feel like that's what C dramas are all about. Be ready for the all typical troupes and you will be good.

Easily a 10/10 for me!!!
I am absolutely obsessed with this beautiful drama from beginning to end! I have a so so so much to say.Minor spoilers!!!!! nothing major
Story: I love me a good interesting but simple story line that has room to develop and grow. That is exactly what this is. It starts off very lighthearted and fun while also still being able to develop and talk about a heavy topic like mental illness. The way this drama incorporated mental illness is very well done. In the beginning we really have no idea what the ML is going through. It is very accurate to the topic at hand because it is not a physical illness that can be seen easily. I am someone who struggles with severe depression and anxiety so this really hit home for me. From an outsiders perspective people who are struggling can come off as cold hearted and distant. When in actuality simple things like confessing your feelings and openly talking to people about emotions is very very difficult. I love how supportive the FL is for the ML when she finds out. There relationship development is top tier and so pure and cute?.
Characters: I absolutely love all of the main and support characters??? All the actors did an amazing job! My favorite is probably the ML, he is an actor I haven’t seen before. I looked at his profile and was sad to see he isn’t in a lot of main roles. I am excited to see more from him in the future and hope he can get more main roles! I also have to mention the kid Rui Rui? He was so precious I love him so much. I love when there is a kid dynamic in a drama. I eat that plot point up every time it always hits?. Rui Rui was such a wing man for the ML?He was their number one shipper since day 1. FL did an amazing job as well and love her dynamic with all the characters. FL parents are the best!!! I love how supportive they are. Very rare to see in dramas for some reason?. The Chemistry between the leads is top tier?. Some of the best kiss scenes I have seen in a minute?. Specifically the one where he came home drunk had me screaming. I literally said “hot dammmmm” and had to sit up?.
Ending: This is just my preferences but endings really make or break a drama for me. I absolutely hate open endings, rushed endings, and just sad endings in general. However this drama had a beautiful last episode that wrapped everything up in a perfect bow?. Side note I am so glad Rui Rui came back for the last scene with everyone. I was literally crying from happiness at the end. Truly a masterpiece!
Overall: Please Please Please just watch this if you are looking for a cute slice of life drama. No major misunderstandings or angst. Every issue gets resolved in a not annoying and drawn out way. I think this drama was the perfect length not too short or too long simply just right?

Supercalifragilisticexpiaidocious! (aka Delightful)
This drama will awaken childhood memories of tastes, fragrances and warmth, against the harsh and judgemental world that want to impose claims of “better taste”, “better behavior”, “better this and that” and bring down those who thrive, hidden, in simple joys. The protagonists all have problems, some rather serious, but many have or will find ways to cope and better, to thrive and find like minded support and budding love. But anger management or handicap are only one leaf of what indeed, first, is a delightfully sweet love story bouquet.A rose given in the depth of despair and a half-mistaken kiss turn out to be the seed of a sweet story, where a shy young pastry chef, helped by a young Cupid-like godson, picks up a wilting (wall)flower in whom he found inspiration for his latest creations. Dessert-making elevated to an art is buoyed by the beautiful writing of the young food blogger: this is a celebration of the value of good food-blogging as well as that of the sweet tooth, which can also be an antidote for mild depression or anxiety. Taking care and assuming responsibility for a sweet, uncomplicated child who derives joy from simple water splashing and shoving his temporary guardians’ heads together for a picture, is another source of warm feelings. The story is simple, despite the half-hidden frailties that each character, main or secondary, expose to the other. Parents may worry and fight but will evolve to a more accepting mindset. The help from family is a strong pillar to lean upon. The story emphasizes loyalty, open-mindedness and the will to help those near and dear who are still not strong enough to resist alone when they brush with “how cold the world is”. On the surface, the story is as light-hearted as seawater spray drifting up as vapor into fluffy white clouds in the cerulean skies over the boundless waters. If one wants to dig further, this drama has roots going as deep as the murky cold waters that somehow also can provide joy for divers who respect its many hidden forms and colors. Although the story doesn’t take us further than the seaside, we'll accept and believe that shameless human sharks won’t win, faced with the overpowering force of sincerity. The drama upholds such positive values. Moments of doubts will subside like vapor after downpours, before the expected happy ending, illustrating what glues friends and a family together.
Particularly good acting from the cute 6-year old child actor, Lennon Sun (Sun Si Cheng 孙思程) playing RuiRui. This is his second appearance since his debut last year in favorably received “Unforgettable Love”.
Blinding smiles from the sunny, petite, barely 24-year-old Jin Zi Suan (金子璇) in the role of food blogger Jiang Si Han. This is her third appearance in dramas, maybe we shall see more of her in the future.
Delicate acting from 27-year-old Zhou Jun Wei (周峻纬) who apart from his career in supporting roles since 2018 Put Your Head on My Shoulder, is also a singer: he sings the theme song “Run To You”. In 2018, he joined the number of actors who bravely revealed their married status (like Timmy Xu Wenzhou, Allen Ren Jialun..) while continuing to act in romantic roles, this time in his first ML one, as dessert-maker Cheng Mu. We shall expect him again as ML in upcoming Story of Kunning Palace.
There is another, more drama-conventional CP with 27-year-old Xu Ke Er (徐棵二) as Cheng Mu’s elder sister and protector agency director, and 23-year -old singer and actor Brian Chang Bin (常斌) who aptly plays the role of a minor celebrity who already has earned enough wealth to realize his dreams. They demonstrate enough chemistry to satisfy those who would not be moved by the softness of the leads.
The rest of the cast is more like icing sugar sprinkled on the dessert, with love-seeking and good-looking young characters who reminded me of the mermaid princes in the short drama:” I don’t want to fall in love with human”. Indeed, idol-training “De De”/ Chen Jian Yu (陈建宇) as Jian Yi Hang also played as ML in that short drama.
The OST songs are very pleasant to listen to. There is even an ear-worm one, with all-English “Run To You” (“Take my hand, I know how cold the world is…”) sung by soft-voiced Zhou Jun Wei (also ML).
Overall, this drama was a relaxing pause from more stressful or over-long ones.
I always liked desserts like the ones they show. ... Suddenly finding myself craving for a passion-fruit mousse topped with slices of fresh figs and mint leaves and a drawn-on design of auspicious characters in dark and white chocolate... Or simply a slice of seasonal pumpkin pie with pecan nuts + a cup of ginger tea to stave off the sniffles due to the unseasonable lukewarm and windy weather. I'll take myself to get served by the friendly staff with mild mental and cognitive disabilities in the inclusive Happy Café on the main avenue of the city where I am currently based (this idea has also spread to China). :-)

Leve e fofo
Se você busca um drama levinho e muito fofo pode assistir esse sem medo, cada episódio tem sua fofura, não tem personagens chatos e relacionamentos complicados, na minha opinião esse drama entregou muito mais em 16eps do que muitos dramas grandes. Se é isso que você está buscando pode dar play sem medo de ser feliz, garanto que você vai se apaixonar pelo Rui Rui, sem falar que o prota é um fofo e tem um casal secundário maravilhoso(A irmã e o melhor amigo do prota). ?????Was this review helpful to you?
Só dei 9,5 por conta de acabar não conseguindo aproveitar tanto quanto queria e infelizmente isso me fazia perder aquela empolgação. Fico chocada com o quanto demorava para assistir um episódio de 28 minutos era no máximo dois episódios por dia, porém quero rever com mais calma daqui uns anos. Fiquei o tempo todo agoniada para acabar Since I Met U e agora concluido vai me deixar saudades.

ENCANTO SUTIL: UM DRAMA FOFINHO COM LIMITAÇÕES
Não tenho muito o que falar desse drama, ele é bem calmo e tranquilo, apesar de falar de depressão, ele é leve, mas não é nada demais. Ele tem elementos que eu gosto bastante, como não ser gato e rato, não ter vilões idiotas, não tem maus entendidos, depois que fica junto não separa, mas ainda com tudo isso, ele não incrivelmente bom, ele é digamos fofinho, um drama bonzinho, bom pra relaxar. O casal secundário é melhor que o primeiro e o terceiro não precisava existir, eu achei interessante as escolhas das cores da serie, é tudo meio pastel, bem iluminado, mas tudo tinha um tom esbranquiçado que deixava meus olhos cansados. Para concluir é um drama que sim eu recomendo é fofinho, mas é so isso.Was this review helpful to you?
