- Who'll love it
- Great for anyone who watches cooking shows for fun and anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead. Don't watch it hungry. If you loved Mildred Pierce or The Dreamers, start here. Paris does a lot of the work, and it looks wonderful.
- The mood
- Tense, warm and romantic.
- The pace
- Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 28 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
