Delicious visual and foods, and slow-moving romance, story, and everything!
Honestly, I don't think this show is that bad. At least, not for me. I like the characters, the visuals, the story, the romance, but the way they chose to tell the story hinders its ability to become a successful show. The pacing was, at times, too slow, and it didn't contribute much to the story/plot overall. And this is also a problem with the romance. It's like they have everything right at their disposal to create a fantastic show, but they didn't quite manage to get there.
Don't get me wrong, I like this show. I really do! It's a stunning show with good actors; the story just wasn't there. They needed more time to develop the story. Or maybe it was one of those experimental type of storytelling, which is good, because it's always good to have different type of storytelling. But this kind of story didn't really draw me in even though I wanted it to. And to this day. I still can't figure out what's missing, and that's the problem for me.
But sometimes, I found myself, wanting more in terms of storytelling, and not getting it. Instead, I get pretty visuals, which is nice, but I wanted more. That being said, I still think they have a decent story here, and it's a good show to watch to pass the boredom. I might not rewatch it (but I'm also someone who doesn't rewatch shows until years later no matter how much I like them).
