“★ ★ ★ ★ ★ … a gastronomic feast so rich and romantic, it’ll leave you woozy.”
– Time Out
“★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a film that builds to its poignant moments but not in a sentimental way. Love here is all about putting in the effort and tasting the sweet result of that, which though it may not last forever in the moment, will always be a feast for the memory.”
