"A nice romcom with a touch of magic in the recipe, to bring you many emotions through the courses of the film!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I saw this long ago and thought of it on occasion ever since. Because well..the dreamy magic, incredible food, the overall sweetness and my endless love for Sarah Michelle Gellar of course…it really was irresistible. I’m happy to say I still love all those things about it. The innocent optimism does seem of another time now though which is sad. I think the world needs more movies like this. And maybe a mass dosing of her emotion laden food lol "

"This movie is absolutely bonkers. It makes absolutely no sense, so many story lines presented that are never resolved, and nobody is concerned about the magical crab controlling their every move. But it's presented as an average rom com? Deranged. 100% recommend."
