Story 6/10
PROs
I love Gao Xing. Her cheerful personality makes everyone smile. Her bluntness about her emotions is something enviable. She isn't afraid to tell everyone upfront how much she likes them. Qin Zhe Mo, Jiang Shang Wu's cousin, is also a beautifully woven character, initially Gao Xing's crush. Gao Xing and Qin Zhe Mo's friendship is honestly so cool. They tell each other about their love lives over dinner and they both know how much the other loves their significant other. Whenever Han Xiao misunderstands Gao Xing's and Qin Zhe Mo's relationship, Gao Xing would always meet up with Han Xiao to tell her that Qin Zhe Mo really loves her. I loved the ending of this drama, especially the trip Gao Xing and Jiang Shang Wu takes to find a certain type of coffee bean. The drama really describes, in much detail, how to make coffee.

CONs
Jiang Shang Wu's personality is terrible. He's yes and then he's no. They were in the boss and worker zone, then friend zone, then family zone. His sole reason for not being in a relationship with her is his dislike for her tomboy nature, which does not make sense because he keeps on thinking about her. In the Korean drama it made sense because Han Gyul had to reconsider his sexual identity, which is not a simple understanding. In this Chinese remake, Jiang Shang Wu clearly knows she's a woman, so he's not facing a sexual identity crisis like the show suggests. I disliked how Gao Xing had to apologize to Jiang Shang Wu all the time for hiding the fact that she's friends with his cousin, which is a ridiculous reason to break up with her.

Story 9/10
PROs
This drama is fluffy and beautiful. It's a very typical romance that proceeds very fast since the show is finished in 12 episodes. I support the strong woman character in Gu Cong Lai. She's very experienced in cooking in her own way. Gu Cong Lai is very down to earth, and we watch Liu Shang Jun, the other main character, start to revolve around her and her life. Their interactions are very wholesome and sweet.

CONs
Several of the side characters are annoying because they love the main characters too much. Throughout the entire drama, the methods the side characters use are very extreme; putting a laxative pill in the customer's food simply because you are jealous of him is not a good way to continue to run the restaurant business. Most of these antics detract from the fluffiness of the romance. It hit me at the end of the drama that Gu Cong Lai's food is actually similar to drugging someone.
