I swear, i'm not one of those people who find bad sides in everything but this is another drama i didn't like. I looked forward to this because of the cast, but that's pretty much all i appreciated. I enjoyed the meaning given to food and cooking: a human need beyond its biological role. On the other hand though, i didn't see any concrete development in the screenplay or in the characters or in the relationships between them. What i love about japanese dramas is their ability to intensify feelings; in less than 10 episodes you find yourself irreversably attached to the world the show is set in. While in this case love relationships, friendships, family bonds, hindered dreams remain superficial. Great potential, poorly exploited.
