Surprisingly memorable

I am writing this review now around 6 months after I actually watched the series.
Originally I rated this an 8 on Viki, but it has really stuck with me, so I am "upgrading" it to 9.

Exactly why it has stuck with me I am not sure of, but the ML did make an impression on me.
He was an interesting character, and Lin Yu Shen portrayed him well. I think one of the reasons his role is memorable for me is that he stands out a bit from a lot of the other more visually "polished" male actors I had seen in C-dramas. Lin Yu Shen is a mature man, not trying to look like he is a 25 year old idol, lol.
Zhao Lu Si as the FL is also convincing, and her persona has some more natural traits than in a lot of other dramas. (I actually didn't know it was ZLS until I looked this drama up again now.)

The story kind of grabbed my interest straight away, and if you are a foodie or have a liking for food, that might be enough reason for you to check this series out.

As for the story, there are some very familiar plots, but overall it is still interesting.

I can see myself rewatching this at some point, mainly because of the warm feelings the ML and FL left me with.
