Food drama?

I have realized that I like food dramas.

First, I watched Bambino![/url] and I really, really loved it (I consider it one of my favorites). Then I watched the cute Antique with all those amazing cakes... Recently I watched Dinner. This made me realize I want to watch more food related dramas! But which one should I watch next? This is where I need your help! I already have some on my PTW list but I don't know what to choose first. It could also be something that's not yet on my list.

I'll list some things I want:

+ I plan to watch the movie Antique Bakery soon, but now I'm looking for a drama.
+ I prefer Japanese dramas, but other would be fine, too.
+ I prefer short (short-ish) dramas, around ten episodes. Or not longer than 20.
+ It doesn't have to be about a restaurant, it can just as well be a bakery. It can be either food or pastries (or even both).
+ It should not only take place in a restaurant/bakery, but be about food/cooking/baking and people who enjoy eating/cooking/baking. (My Name Is Kim Sam Soon does not count as a "food drama", imo. She does think about food a lot, but doesn't spend a lot of screentime on baking.) In other words, food/cooking should be a major part of the plot in one way or another.
+ Many close-ups on yummy food and gorgeous cakes is definitely a plus, I like eyecandy of the edible variety. ;)

Something about what I don't like:

- As for the plot, anything goes [u]except super melodramatic romance... Actually, I prefer if it's more about friendship, but I don't mind if there's a bit of romance. I like it cute, simple and heartwarming. A touch of comedy wouldn't be wrong but it's not a must.
- I prefer if there's no annoying evil character who tries to sabotage the main character's love life, etc!! (Well, okay, so this is dramaland - there will almost certainly be at least some hints of that in most dramas, and I'll live with that... but there are some that are refreshingly free of it.)
- I also don't want a male lead who is a total jerk who tries to control his love interest's life. I don't mind to sometimes see a male lead who's a bit cold and distant at first (if he's otherwise kind-hearted, smart and awesome), but I don't like it if it turns into stupid posessiveness and so on. (Of course, this is perhaps not very relevant as long as it isn't a romance drama. The male lead in Dinner is my kind of guy, though, even if there was no romance.)

I don't mean to sound like I'm picky or asking for too much when I list all these details of my likes/dislikes; the main point is that I want a good food-related drama! :) I'm just trying to spare you guys the trouble of recommending something that I'm not really looking for.

What about "Let's Eat" ? There's only 4 episodes out right now,since there is only one episode per week, but i quite like it..It's funny and heartwarming, seems to be about friendship but looks like there might be a romance in the future, who knows :D

There are a couple that I really liked, mayonaka no panya-san- takes place in a boulangerie and I thought was cute and heartwarming, and lunch queen. One drama I was going to watch is osen, a drama about a Japanese restaurant inn and it's food preparation, it looks yummy! Another food drama I was going to start watching, is king of baking- I love all things pastry ^_^

Try Nobunaga no Chef :D http://mydramalist.com/japanese-drama/5971/nobunaga-no-chef

Thank you, sabubu, Nana87, witlily and Ari_lee! With all this, I think my appetite will be satisfied for a while!

Fermentation Family - the best thing about the drama was when they would prepare a different kimchi and show it in detail. I had never thought kimchi could be so intricate & delicate,

Alas, most of my recommendations exceed 20 ep but they are good. Rebound was funny and cute! Pasta was also cute. Panda-and-hedgehog was also cute and all about the bromance! But if you ever consider them; Fermentation-family was really good!

I know you're looking for dramas, but perhaps you'd like to add Tampopo to your list for future reference. It fits your bill almost perfectly, except that it's a movie.
